A former collegiate church founded in the 1310s by the infanta Blanca of Portugal; the present building replaces a Gothic one and is mostly of the 17th and 18th centuries. The neoclassical façade, with two bell towers, dates from 1788 to 1792; inside are three aisles of equal height, the Sagrario chapel of 1667 and the Santa Casilda chapel with an altarpiece of about 1565. It is now a church closed to worship.
