It was promoted by Doña Margarita de Llùria from 1320 onwards. It has a single nave, about 25 metres long and 14 metres wide, with ribbed vaulted ceilings and an apse, which makes Ifach one of the most interesting sites from the medieval period in the Valencian Community.

It has two chapels, one of which was discovered in the 2009 campaign, as well as a 20-metre bell tower, integrated into the wall and with a spiral staircase. The building had three chaplaincies for the Poor Clare nuns of the Royal Monastery of Santa Clara de Xàtiva, dedicated to the Virgin Mary, the Archangel Saint Michael and Saint Nicholas.

Despite the destruction of Ifach, the church remained in use in the following centuries. Moreover, in 1623, and foreseeing possible attacks by Berber pirates from North Africa, the Count of Dénia tried to recover the building for military rather than religious purposes, given its excellent state of conservation and its strategic location.
