Description

This church, dating from the 13th century, was completed in the 15th century with the addition of a bell tower at the front, probably after the withdrawal of a central bell tower which seems to have existed in the third span, according to the plan. The building includes a nave of five spans with edges with edges, and the two doubts at the ends are based on overhanging columns. Two arcs, which seem to have supported a bell tower, are supported by pillars that reach the ground. The nave ends with a square bedside. The old entrance, with two arches with columns and a large bay above, is under the 15th century bell tower. The vault of this bell tower has diagonal arches and ivy, and its facade has a door with pinnacles and a hug. In the upper part, two single arc berries are pierced at the level of the belfry room.
