Description

The parish church dates from 1689 and is of Doric order. Prior to the 17th century, the old mosque was used as a temple, next to the demolished castle. Relics of the Holy Crowned Martyr, from Roman times, whose remains were transferred to this parish church in the 17th century.

It maintained its original appearance until 1922 when the facilities were restored and 1995 when the altar was refurbished. Inside, in the area of the main altar, you can visit the image of Santa Catalina next to a colourful reliquary with the remains of San Coronado, transferred in 1793, following the authorisation of Pope Clement.
