Around it is a wall that surrounds the old town, in which the so-called "pilgrims' gate" can be distinguished, as this town is within the Northern Way or the Coast of the Jacobean routes.
Its construction began in the 13th century, and continued throughout the following centuries with other additions. The main part of the church was completed in the 14th century. However, reforms began in the 15th century, with side chapels . Then, around 1530, the transept , the apse, the tower, the crypt and the high choir . The bell tower dates back to the end of the 19th century.
