This chapel is an example of traditional religious architecture and is often associated with devotion to Saint Sebastian, a saint highly venerated in the Iberian Peninsula, especially for his role as a protector against epidemics.

The rear façade is blind and the sides have a small framed window, while the one on the east side has a door. The entrance portal to the chapel has a chamfered round arch and is topped by a rectangular cartouche in relief with the coat of arms of Bishop D. Rodrigo Pereira. Inside the nave, which is free of plaster, there is an altar supported on the pedestal with a front covered in standard white, blue and yellow tiles. Above, in the centre of the back wall, there is a niche with an image of the Martyr St. Sebastian.
