The 13th-century parish church is dedicated to Saint Bean and was restored in 1927. The category B listed building retains original medieval features including a leper's squint. Inside the church is an 8th-century Pictish cross-slab, a replica of which stands in the village square. The slab is carved with a Celtic cross on one side, and the other side bears typically Pictish symbols as well as carvings of animals and people.
