Again one of the many Romanesque churches with the peculiar, lateral porch probably as a shelter for pilgrims. Here with a very special atmosphere and an old Letnakreuz reminiscent of Cimabue. In the sacristy next to it there is a nice stamp.

It is one of the later Romanesque churches in the Villaviciosa area. It was built in the late thirteenth or early fourteenth century, and already has some Gothic elements, so it can be considered as a transitional building between two artistic styles. It consists of a single nave of plan and rectangular head, sacristy and open portico attached to the south wall.
Inside, the nave is covered with exposed wooden structure, and the two sections of the headboard are covered with pointed barrel.
