The spacious church clearly displays the characteristics of its style.
It is of basilican plan with a nave and two aisles separated by square piers which support semi-circular arches and with a transept of impressive height.
The iconostasis, that separates the sanctuary from the rest of the church is remarkably similar in appearance to a triumphal arch.
The size and originality of the church stands out and distinguishes it from works of Visigothic art.
However, without doubt, that which most attracts attention to this church is the pictorial decoration, with aniconic frescoes (stucco, very well executed), painted in three layers, with architectural decoration that bears clear Roman influences.
Although it appears more a monastic rather than a royal church, a gallery was reserved for the king in the transept.

Of the three original entrances to the church, two have been filled in.
