The village has a medieval and Renaissance parish church but is dominated by the school and the mother house of the order of Sisters of Providence (which enjoys links with England, the Netherlands and Madagascar). The tall spire of the conventual church is visible at a distance.

It was the first home to the Brothers of St. Joseph, now the Holy Cross Brothers associated with Notre Dame University in the USA.[3]
