It was founded in 1552 under both dedications on the same site where the present church was built. With the passing of time, only the image of the Apostle St. James was preserved in the chapel. It is a small hermitage with a single nave, rectangular floor plan and main entrance on one of the sides. During the Civil War, the old wooden image was destroyed and replaced by a new one. The current chapel is the result of a total remodelling that was completed in 1980.
