Iglesia del Santo Cristo de la Salud

Iglesia del Santo Cristo de la Salud

The new church was blessed in 1758. During the Spanish Civil War, the images and sacred ornaments were destroyed, despite having been hidden in a private house. The church was looted and converted into a stable. The chapel has only recently reopened, with many neighbours donating saints that were still in their houses. The image of the Cristo de la Salud is attributed to Juan Martínez Montañés and dates to around 1603. It is located on Calle de la Estación.
