History
Small isolated oratory built to commemorate a miraculous event or following a vow. The building must date from the end of the 16th century. The irregular plan indicates that it has undergone transformations since its construction (the aisle appears to have been added later). The exterior features a turret, small bell towers, gables. Inside, exposed timber-framed roof structure and wooden rood screen.
