This Collegiate Church was founded in the XII Century, and is located outside the town, next to the river Sar.
It has a basilical structure and three naves divided by pillars decorated with natural motives. Outside, the solid flying buttresses that protect the Northern walls attract the attention of the visitor.
The interior columns are visibly inclined, what grants a peculiar attractive to the place and obliged to rebuild the barrel vault in the XVI.
Inside, we can see that it is a temple of great dimensions that impresses because of its columns lean, given a feeling of instability.
The Master Mateo left his mark in the decoration of the capitals of the cloister.
A collection of archaeological and liturgical pieces is exhibited inside. We should highlight the baptismal font from the XII Century, located on the right of the main entrance.
