The village church dates from the 11th century, and has a tower from the 9th century (with a 17th-century spire). It was expanded in 1891 and renovated in 1931. About 1 kilometre (0.62 miles) south of the village centre lies a manor (manoir de Labas) known since 1343, subsequently destroyed and rebuilt during the 17th century.^[1]

A Devonian lagerstätte is known from the area, containing fossils of fairy shrimp, notostracans^[2] and possible insects.^[3]
