It was constructed in the 13th century by the Order of Christ (Portuguese descendants of the Order of the Temple). It is the oldest sacral building in the Algarve that is preserved to date.
The single-nave church has withstood the centuries quite well.
Inside as well as outside a simple building, completely in the sense of the order.
