The church, which dates back to the 18th century but was rebuilt in 1977, is situated in the highest part of the village and is known as the church of Santo Cristo de la Cabrilla. This church stands out among the houses and buildings in the centre of Alfarnatejo.
It was built with a simple plan structure that follows the traditional rectangular model with two naves, separated by semicircular arches.
On the outside, the quadrangular, massive tower stands out, built in Mudejar-style fired brick.
