The church, dating to the twelfth century, has a plain rectangular plan with a wall covering in square stones. Outside the massive portal is embellished with decorations, maybe originating from the Abbazia di Sant'Antimo. The gabled bell tower and the vestry are original, too. The apse is crowned with corbels and decorated with suspended arches. On the left side there is another monumental portal whose arch is supported by two columns and contains a decorated shape. The extremely plain interior is lit up by narrow slits, one in the apse.
