It is believed that this small religious temple was built by a friar in the second half of the 18th century, as proven by the coat of arms on the main facade.

Description
Baroque in style, its splendid façade has a counter-curved pediment with a portal, windows and oculus surrounded by vegetal decoration. The open crown above the oculus corresponds to the same decorative motif that tops the window frames.
The north and south cornices reveal, between the corners of the main facade and the pilaster located in the final third of its parameters, a small formal difference with the remaining cornice that runs along these facades, indicating a change in the chapel's previous facade at an undefined moment.
Sacristy
The sacristy features a well-made washbasin, with a full shell arch, highlighted later by a projecting cornice, with a tap inscribed with a floral motif and a circular sink.
