Ermita de San Bautista y Nuestra Señora de la Mercedes
The chapel was built by order of the Marchioness, Catalina de Rojas y Sandoval, in 1635. It is a small convent-style building located just behind the Town Hall, next to a viewpoint with excellent views, now deconsecrated and conditioned for housing; its stone walls have a rectangular floor plan and a gabled roof. In the upper centre of the facade is the belfry, with a single hole and a rectangular pediment. In April 2018, the plenary session of the Corporation approved the purchase of the hermitage. Among the ideas for its future are: its conversion into a museum of arts and popular customs, fitting it out for conferences, a cultural space, and above all, the restoration of its heritage. Here you will also find the Mirador de La Carrera viewpoint.
