The church was originally established in 1875 when a local resident invited Father Vinte Gomar of the Dominican Order to come to Puxin. Father Gomar then bought the land for 100 dollars in 1877. In 1882, Father Celedonio Arranz took over the work and built the first church structure. In 1906, an earthquake devastated Central Taiwan and destroyed the church structure. In 1912, Father Manuel Prat built the second church structure. In 1975, the old structure was torn down and rebuilt into the third generation structure. The construction was completed in 1996. The church was designated as historical structure on 10 April 2002.
