It is under the jurisdiction of the Diocese of Daet and is the oldest church in Camarines Norte built by the Franciscan friars in 1611.

Juan de Losar, OFM built a church named after Saint Peter.

In 1624, the whole town of Tacboan was relocated and it was called Indan where a new church was built with the same patron saint, St. Peter the Apostle.

After World War II, Indan was renamed Vinzons in honor of Wenceslao Q. Vinzons; a former governor of the Camarines Norte, youngest delegate to the Philippine Constitutional Convention of 1935, and a guerrilla leader martyred by the Japanese during World War II.

[2] The Governor of Camarines Norte, Edgardo "Egay" Tallado, said that the slow response of the fire marshall resulted in the destruction of the whole church except for the concrete walls.

The flooring consists of the same baldozas mosaicos or machuca tiles, specially fired and featuring the same design.

Wooden doors and benches are made of yakal, featuring sculpted banyan tree leaves.

Chandeliers and ceiling murals were commissioned pro bono by Hermes Alegre, a visual artist from the Philippines.
