Although its existence is attested, the available sources do not specify its date of construction or the circumstances of its construction.

Rural churches like Saint-Hilaire de Cabannes played a central role in the life of medieval and modern communities. They served not only as a place of worship, but also as a gathering point for social, political or agricultural events.
