It is a recent construction, carried out due to the creation of the Peares reservoir. The church has a rectangular floor plan with a square presbytery to which a rectangular sacristy is added on the right side. The walls are made of masonry and granite ashlar, with gabled and three-pitched roofs1. Inside, it preserves what was the altarpiece of the old parish church, moved to this new building. The altarpiece is in Baroque style and bears the inscription: "SI HIZO Y PINTO SIENDO CURA BERNARDO DE ROCA AÑO DE 1747"⛪🚶‍♂️🌄🚶‍♀️

Right next to the church, less than a stone's throw away, there is another small sacred monument: supported by a round stone column, which rests on a multi-tiered base at the bottom and ends with a decorated capital at the top, there is a stone crucifix, i.e. a cross with the corpus of Jesus Christ.
