Built from the project prepared by the architects Juan Manuel del Busto González and Miguel Díaz y Negrete in 1951.
The draft – already drawn up in the 1940s – shows the interest of the parish priest Moisés Díaz Caneja (Arte y Liturgia, 1947) in the architectural renewal in line with the expansion of the Liturgical Movement, which is why he contacted the Austrian architect Robet Kramreiter. Despite the fact that this first project was not approved, because it was considered too "exotic" by the General Directorate of Devastated Regions, the growing presence of Modernity in Asturian territory is more than evident in this temple.
