Reloj instalado en la torre campanario, de dial circular blanco y números arábigos y manecillas en negro, fabricado por la empresa Roquetas.

"Reconstruida en el siglo XVI cuenta con una torre del siglo XVIII de ladrillo visto coronada por una singular cúpula de estilo bizantino.

La primitiva iglesia se levantó a mediados del siglo XVI. En la segunda mitad del siglo XVIII debió construirse la actual cabecera y posteriormente se ampliaría a tres naves. Contemporánea a la ampliación debe ser la torre, que fue reparada tras el terremoto de 1884. Recientemente ha sido de nuevo objeto de una intervención."

Clock installed in the bell tower, with a white circular dial and black Arabic numerals and hands, manufactured by the Roquetas company.

"Rebuilt in the 16th century, it has an 18th-century tower made of exposed brick crowned by a unique Byzantine-style dome.

The original church was built in the mid-16th century. In the second half of the 18th century, the current head had to be built and it would later be expanded to three naves. Contemporary with the extension must be the tower, which was repaired after the earthquake of 1884. It has recently been the subject of another intervention."
