This Romanesque-origin church has a rectangular layout with a slightly pointed semicircular apse, reminiscent of a ship’s keel. Its walls are made of rough stone, while the roof, renewed during reconstruction, is made of tile supported by oak trusses. The structure also includes a bell gable and an attached external shed, added during the restoration completed in 1981, which introduced some changes from the original construction. Today, the church—located in a wooded setting—has been in use again since its reopening for worship on November 1, 1981.
This small church, traditionally considered the original parish of the town, is surrounded by the remains of old buildings, including the final station of a Via Crucis made of ceramics of likely antiquity. In 1926, worship services ceased, and in 1936, a strong tramuntana windstorm caused the roof to collapse. It was later rebuilt on the initiative of the parish priest of Llambilles, based on drawings of the old chapel made by Mr. Gener from Cassà de la Selva.
