Also known as Iglesia de la Purísima Concepción, the church is a Gothic-Renaissance temple built throughout the sixteenth century and later renovated. On its site stood the medieval Iglesia de Santa María, the remains of which are still evident on the south wall and main façade.

Casa del Párroco is representative of the popular Baroque architecture of the seventeenth century. It is a peculiar structure of recesses and projections, creating at the same time optical and perspectival illusions due to its broken shapes and angularity.
