There was also a second church of which the tower and the doorway to the square are preserved. On the tower we read the date 1612. The tower is raised on an arch or door that serves as street, is square in its first body, takes octagonal shape in the second, the bells, topped with battlements, and on these we find a pyramidal type top.
