Original construction: Late 16th and early 17th centuries.
It was praised in 1645 by Francisco de Rada.
Between 1748 and 1757, significant renovations were carried out, including a new main chapel whose roof was converted into a watchtower.
It suffered severe damage during a fire in July 1936, at the beginning of the Spanish Civil War. It was rebuilt by the architect José María Pérez Carasa.
