History of this monument:
In a charter dated 1066, Nice Cathedral received a gift from the priory of "Sancti Stephani Tiniensi." The lordship belonged to the Thorame-Glandevès family. The choir is in the Gothic style of the remains of the previous church. Luc Thévenon notes that this type of vault is rare in the County of Nice: "Its supports are arranged in a star shape with ribs, liernes, tiercerons, and formerets inserted into the walls. The keystones are flat."
