What to see in Felix
Church of the Incarnation
The Parish Church of Our Lady of the Incarnation, dating back to the 14th century, was built on the remains of an old mosque built by the Muslims who inhabited the area.
The Church is in full entrance of Felix, so it is the first site that catches the attention of tourists when they arrive.
The main nave of the church is rectangular in shape, and was converted into a temple invocation of Our Lady of the Incarnation by disposition of the Catholic Monarchs.

It is a church of great character and beauty, which is also a fundamental part of the traditional celebrations of the town.
Hermitage of Felix
It is a characteristic construction of the lower Alpujarra of Almeria and is part of the Arab and Muslim legacy that remained throughout the area and in other towns of Almeria.
It is a small construction with a square base, with a large dome that gives it an air of solemnity, on which a cross rests. This structure, unlike most of the hermitages that are scattered throughout Almeria, is completely hollow, that is, what supports the dome are four main columns, but there are no walls and the interior of the chapel is empty.

Stone Arch
The “Barranquillo” Stone Arch is located below the church square.
It is an arch of small dimensions, built entirely with stones, which surely required great effort.
