Description

The bell tower, more than 20 meters high and square, dominates the village with a four-slope roof. The association of bell ringers of Quesa keeps alive the tradition of the manual ringing of the four bells that it houses inside. The clock retains its original mechanism since 1956 and is wound daily by hand.

Inside we find images dating between 1939 and 1942, the previous ones were destroyed during the Spanish Civil War, along with the wooden altarpieces and other elements. Part of the side altar that houses the Divina Aurora is preserved as it was built of work, dating from the eighteenth century. Its last reform (1990) has tried to maintain the Mediterranean spirit in its architecture.
