It is one of the most emblematic monuments of Chelva and considered one of the best works of the Valencian baroque. In 2006 it was declared an Asset of Cultural Interest,
Its construction dates back to the 17th century and lasted about 80 years. Its bell tower measures 60 m and its façade has very picturesque masonry work.

The church was built between the 17th and 18th centuries in the Mannerist and Baroque styles. Its design is inspired by the Church of the Gesù in Rome, designed by Jacopo Vignola. The building has a Latin cross plan, with side chapels and a transept inscribed in a rectangle. Its baroque bell tower and the largest dome in the region that is today the Valencian Community stand out. The interior ornamentation, the work of architect Juan Pérez Castiel, is magnificent and characteristic of its style.
This church, declared a Site of Cultural Interest, is a treasure that deserves to be visited. If you ever find yourself in Chelva, do not hesitate to admire the majesty of the Archpriest Church of Our Lady of the Angels. 🌟🏰🌿
