Iglesia Parroquial de la Inmaculada

The church was built by Juan Fernández in 1546 and has undergone many transformations throughout its history. Only the framework of the central nave remains of the original construction, featuring simple lintels and ten paired braces with a bow of eight on corbels in an inverted Mannerist design in the Mudejar style. The church now has three naves, separated by semicircular arches on pillars, as well as a transept, a main chapel, and a tower at the entrance. The transept, which was added at the end of the 18th century, is covered with a squinched vault, while the main chapel, which has a square floor plan, has a barrel vault. The doorway was constructed in the 20th century (in 1906), while the tower dates from the 18th century. A major remodelling was carried out in 1872, during which the side naves and the tabernacle of the presbytery were built. The cemetery was relocated to Picón in 1915. Most of the interior decorations, including the statues and altarpieces, date from the Baroque period of the Granada School. It is located in Plaza España.
