History
In the Middle Ages the parish was known as Athaneins but over time the name Baneins, which was the name of the castle, replaced it. The etymology remains uncertain: the name Baneins is based on the German man's name Bano or Banno and the suffix -eins is very common in the Dombes area and comes from the suffix -ing which is commonly added to many Germanic names.
Baneins was a lordship before becoming Viscounty then a County under Louis XIII. The County became, with Béreins and Dompierre-sur-Chalaronne, the twelfth lordship under the sovereignty of Dombes.
Of the old castle built in the 13th century by Raoul de Baneins, a knight, who gave his name to the village, there remains no trace.
The abandonment of the name Athaneins for Baneins was probably related to the identification of the locality to the hierarchy of the lords of Baneins.

The bell tower was located above the bay of the choir but was destroyed in the French Revolution and rebuilt over the entrance. The tympanum was carved in the 19th century in honour of the patron saint of the area and is Saint Martin on horseback, dividing his cloak with a beggar kneeling and relying on a crutch.
