This church, raised in the 19th century, consists of a single nave of three bays, flanked by communicating lateral chapels vaulted on transverse arches. It is lit by high windows with geometric stained glass and by an oculus, to the north. The crossing of the transept is covered by a dome with ashlar stone, topped by a lantern. The building is built in rubble stone with render, with the exception of the facade and quoins in ashlar stone.
