Description:
This church was finished in 1770 and is an example of what's call Estipite Baroque, developed at the dawn of the 18th century. The facade is a beautiful work of art in quarry, but is the main altar inside, the real jewel of this construction.
A ornately carved altar made of gilded wood is the main focus of the church. The paintings on the wall are to be admire as well, specially the CoronaciĆ³n de la Virgen ( The Coronation of the Virgin) and the medallions with images of archangels.
