Since 1104 a priory existed here, depending from the Abbaye aux Dames in Saintes. The erection of the church was completed in 1200 - and by now is the parish church for the population of Corme-Écluse. All other building, that belonged to the priory are lost.
Notre Dame has a wonderful facade, a perfect example of the "style saintongeais". The carvings around the arcs are delicate like fine lace. Here are the archivolts of the central arch.
