Church built during the 12th century. The nave was rebuilt in 1781, and it meant the disappearance of the Romanesque portal and the initial trace of this part of the church. Above the lintel there is an inscription related to this modifications. It still preserves important remains of Romanesque style. On the outside, it preserves a semi-circular apse with a varied collection of modillions (human figures, animal heads and geometric decorations). On the front part of the nave, over the apse, we must highlight an arrow slit and over it, as an antefix, a Lamb of God with an eight-point cross on its back.
