The parish church of Saint-Martin was the seat of a parish office already known to have existed since the 11th century. Its Romanesque layout comprises a nave, a false square and a polygonal apse. The vaults are made of brick; the chapel contains a coat of arms of the Nouère family added in the 17th century.
The baptismal fonts in this church have a drainage opening and have been protected as an object since 17 June 1933.
The forge is a remarkable building in the village centre and has rounded corners on the façade facing the street. The Logis de Nouère is a large rectangular building with a double-flight spiral staircase and a living level raised above a cellar. This was intended to protect it from flooding by the watercourse.
