This church, primitively a chapel, was built in 1689. It was rebuilt in 1855, with a subside of 25,000 fr. given by the English, on the condition that commemorative inscriptions in the honour of the victims of the 18th of June 1815 should figure upon it.

The dome dates back to 1690; a Latin inscription on the fronton bears witness to the fact that it was built by the marquis of Castanaea, under the Spanish domination, to consecrate a wish in the favour of the perpetuity of the race of Charles II, king of Spain.

In 1901, the spire was finished.

Inside, under the dome, against he lateral walls, marble tablets are to be seen, in memory of brave officers and soldiers fallen on the field of Waterloo: on the left, there is also a white marble bust of Wellington, offered by his family.
