The oldest of the church's fa\u00E7ades, the so-called Saint Joseph fa\u00E7ade, was built in 1480 in a style very much inspired by the Flemish. The main fa\u00E7ade is a robust Baroque tower, the upper part of which supports a spire covered with azulejos (tile). In the choir, the altarpiece is an extraordinary late Renaissance piece, created by Mart\u00EDnez Monta\u00F1\u00E9s with Baroque elements attributed to Juan de Arce. The Baroque-style Chapel of the Holy Sacrament backs onto the wall of the church. It was declared Bien de Inter\u00E9s Cultural in 1931.
