The church, built at the end of the 16th century on an octagonal plan, has three naves and an adjoining tower. Inside, there is an octagonal niche on the Gospel side, preceded by an antechapel with an elliptical vault. It is located in the lower part of the village and is the oldest and most important building, erected on the site of an old mosque. The 28-metre nave is separated by pointed arches on pillars. During the 17th century the chapel of Jesús Nazareno was added, with rococo plasterwork, and underneath the church there is a crypt and cemetery from the first years of its construction.
