The present temple was begun in the sixteenth century and finished in 1737. It keeps an altarpiece by Juan de Juanes made up of 26 panels, which was restored in 2005, so the work can be seen in good condition. The church is the main religious building in la Font de la Figuera and brings together in one space the architecture of the temple and a large-format painting. Its position and its parish character place it at the centre of the religious life of the municipality, and the altarpiece shows the weight of painting inside the building.
