As a former dependency of the abbey of Saint-Ouen in Rouen, the church of Rots probably owes its exceptional size to this patronage. The transept and choir are of the gothic period. The portal of the west is a restoration in the Romanesque style carried out in 1910. But the large nave remains from the Romanesque period dating from the 12th century with interior walls decorated with a continuous band of blind arches.
