This church was built after a XIV century chapel made by the will of Branca teixeira, daughter of the first Capitão Donatário of Machico.
The church has undergone several restoration works. The most significant were undertaken in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, without modifying the organizational scheme of the medieval temple.
In one of this restoration works the clock was added but we can´t precise when. The clock has a stone face and black pointers sith roman numerals.
