The Calvary Hermitage
It is estimated that the construction of this hermitage dates from 1846 to 1897.
It is a small and picturesque building that quickly attracts the attention of those who travel nearby, due to its small size and its church form.
It is a small temple in honor of the Holy Calvary, also located in a privileged situation, since it is located in a natural viewpoint, offering a wonderful view to those who come to know it.

Church of Los Llanos
It is a church dedicated to the Virgin of Carmen. If this church stands out for something, it is for the singularity of its procession, since it does not have a route or an approximate duration, since it is an auction procession.
There are some “butlers” who change every year, who are in charge of auctioning who is going to take the virgin from the church. After a few meters traveled with the Virgin is returned to auction at the same system, is the winner of the auction who decides what street the virgin will pass, thus deciding the journey of the procession.
