The history of this church dates back to when the image of Our Lady of Africa was sent to Ceuta in 1421 by the Infante Henry the Navigator, ordering that it should be venerated from such time and dedicated to Saint Mary of Africa, and they also built a temple. The building is a baroque style and its base is rectangular with three naves, the central one being the widest and tallest, beside which the head is placed, composed of the main chapel and two secondary ones. The vestry and other rooms of the temple are connected to this.
