This church was built in the 12th century. It preserves important Romanesque elements. There are Romanesque capitals at the door, with vegetal decoration and the biblical scene of Adam and Eve being tempted by the serpent. In the columns, human figures wearing the typical costume of the time. The transept and the polygonal apse are Gothic, covered by ribbed vaults, and inside there is a font dating from the 13th century with carved figures on the front side.
