This rural Church was probably founded in the 14th century by the monastery of Alpendorada (Marco de Canaveses). Despite the massive appearance of its structure and the persistence of decorations with a Romanesque flavour, there are visible transitions into the Gothic style: the use of the broken arch, of which the main element is the Chancel's window.
