Church of the Annunciation
The Church of the Annunciation replaced the old church that was built in the second half of the 16th century, which was burned during the Moorish rebellion in 1568.
The church has no tower as it was demolished in the 20th century.
This is because it was in a severe and dangerous state of ruin, and to make an extension of the street where it was located.

The Fountain
It is replenished by the Fountain of Huecija.
It consists of a rectangular brick built nave that is open at both ends with a series of arches.
In 1965 it underwent an extension and was restored in 2007, with a wicker roof to showcase the local artisan industry.
