Although this church is baroque in style, it was rebuilt in 1802. In the past, there was a pilgrims' hospital right next to it. Today it is a restaurant.

The parish church has a rectangular plan and a chancel of similar shape, with an adjacent vestry to the rear. The walls are built with granite cachotería and perpiano, and the roof is covered with gabled and hipped slabs.
It is a place of great historical and spiritual value! 😊
