The Church of Sant Jaume originally had the appearance of a fortress and the building was formed part of the wall and it only opened towards the inside of the town of Alcudia.

There is a Neo-gothic altarpiece dedicated to Sant Jaume in the presbytery.
Particularly noteworthy is the Baroque style chapel where the image of Sant Crist is kept and a polychrome sculpture from the 15th century of miracles occurring in 1507.
