This church is classified as one of the most ancient in the principality of Andorra and must be from pre-Romanesque times, around the 10th century.
Rudimentary and austere in style and construction, it has a small rectangular nave and also a rectangular apse. The building was built with blocks of unworked stone, following a horizontal distribution. Crowning the wall there is a small bell tower with a single opening and a swollen half point roof made of rough stone, different from the rest of the construction.
