The vaulted shape of this Church makes it a thing of beauty. The Church boasts of a primitive style of Gothic architecture. To add to the serenity in its totality there are 2 lofty bells seen inside the Church tower.

If you take a walk in the courtyard, you will find a statue of Mae De Deus (Mother of God). The feast day of this patron Saint is celebrated on the 1st Sunday of the week and the fair remains for the entire 8 day novena before the feast day.
