It is not only frequented for religious reasons, but also for being a fundamental pillar of the history and architecture of Abla and Andalusia.
Alba Bastetanorum
It is an archaeological site that is located in the municipality of Abla. Its historical importance is due to the fact that it was one of the seven Roman settlements that existed in Almeria, where historical vestiges of the life in that period have survived.
The Institute of Almerian Studies, the University of Almeria, the local government, and other institutions regularly hold conferences in order to promote the historical heritage it represents, and offer an informative option for locals and tourists.

Saint Anthony the Great Hermitage
The Hermitage of Saint Anthony the Great has given name to the existing cross next to its facade, to the neighbourhood, and to the square where it is located. It appears documented in the 17th century, although the cross of the same name was already mentioned in the 16th century.
Architecturally, it consists of a rectangular nave and a semi-octagonal main chapel, which rises slightly above the level of the nave and communicates directly with the sacristy. Both parts are separated by an archway.

The Holy Martyrs Hermitage
There is documentation of the original hermitage dating from 1698. This valuable data points out that in the period 1629-1698 there was already an old hermitage very different from the one we know today, and that, with time in different phases of remodelling and expansion, would end up adopting the current image.
The architectural structure has a Latin cross layout covered with a half-barrel vault. In the head there rises the level of the presbytery, provided with a central access staircase and at the foot of the main nave stands the choir.
