In the 1630s the works began, but it was not until 1674 when the works advanced, and these continued throughout the century, to be finished in 1701. The master builders in charge of the construction were the Esteller, a family from Valencia. The choir, built in the presbytery, was moved in 1757 to the feet of the nave.

In 1858 the church was extended by connecting the temple and the Communion chapel.

Until the XIXth century the main altar had been dedicated to the Virgin of Angels and Saint Bartholomew, and later, only to Saint Bartholomew, except for 1685 and 1686 in which the invocation of the high altar to Saint Anne.
