The third church constructed on this site, built between 1914 and 1919. The original church on this site was begun in 1776 after the Chapel of Alto Vista fell into disuse and dedicated to Saint Ann, the mother of the Virgin Mary.

The Oak altar inside the church was designed and built in 1870 by Hendrik van der Geld. Originally the altar was in a church in Scheveningen, Netherlands. When the church was renovated in 1928, the parish priest donated the alter, the communion rail and pulpit to the Netherlands Antilles mission which sent it to Santa Ana.

As with other churches on the island, there's an above ground cemetery located adjacent to the church.
