This church was started in the 13th century on the site of an old mosque, but the current construction is the work of the 17th century, and the bell tower is from the 18th century. The slight inclination of the bell tower is a consequence of the earthquake that occurred on March 5, 1822. At the beginning of the 20th century the exterior of the church was renovated.
