"Fue edificada entre 1692 y 1699. Se trata de un templo de tradición mudéjar reformado a finales del siglo XVIII cuyo interior constituye un interesante conjunto en el que se aprecia el paso de la tradición barroca de la tierra hacia una renovación de tipo neoclásico.
Ello se advierte igualmente en la capilla del Sagrario, bello recinto hexagonal con bóveda gallonada, cuyas superficies se aprovechan para el derroche de unas yeserías radiales que representan insertos frutales, textiles y águilas bicéfalas, todo lo cual tiene aún algo de barroco, aunque el neoclásico se impone rotundamente en sus exteriores.
El retablo mayor, en su ático, presenta un lienzo con la Adoración de los Pastores más otros dos en su cuerpo superior con Santo Domingo y San Francisco. Los tres son obras del siglo XVIII.
En la Sacristía de la parroquia está ubicada una pila de mármol negro, procedente de la ermita de la Virgen de los Remedios, decorada con dos leones afrontados, cuya factura popular les confiere una impronta que, aunque esquemática, no carece de atractivo. En una vitrina-expositor se exhiben las piezas de plata de la parroquia. En ella podemos admirar piezas que corresponden a los siglos XVII, XVIII y XIX."

"It was built between 1692 and 1699. It is a temple of Mudejar tradition renovated at the end of the 18th century whose interior constitutes an interesting complex in which the passage from the baroque tradition of the land towards a neoclassical renovation can be appreciated.
This is also seen in the chapel of the Tabernacle, a beautiful hexagonal enclosure with a gallon vault, whose surfaces are used for the extravagance of radial plasterwork that represents fruit inserts, textiles and double-headed eagles, all of which still has something of the baroque, although the neoclassical It is strongly imposed on its exteriors.
The main altarpiece, in its attic, presents a canvas with the Adoration of the Shepherds plus two others in its upper body with Saint Dominic and Saint Francis. All three are works from the 18th century.
In the Sacristy of the parish there is a black marble font, from the hermitage of the Virgen de los Remedios, decorated with two lions facing each other, whose popular workmanship gives them an imprint that, although schematic, is not without appeal. The silver pieces of the parish are displayed in a display case. In it we can admire pieces that correspond to the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries."
