Inside, the altarpiece of the main altar stands out, in Renaissance style from the 16th century. It is attributed to the painter Gabriel de Cárdenas Maldonado, who created the twelve paintings that represent scenes from the life of Jesus Christ and the Virgin.

The Monastery of Santa María de la Armedilla was a monastery of the Order of San Jerónimo, today in ruins, located about 3.8 kilometers from Cogeces del Monte. The monastery was founded after the chance discovery by shepherds of an image of the Virgin Mary in a cave excavated in the rock. This gave rise to a Marian cult in the place and the construction of the monastery. The proximity of quarries and plasterworks in the area facilitated its construction, as well as the water supply. 🏰🌿

Cogeces del Montes is a town located on a wide plain within the páramos de la Churrería. In the center of the village is the Church of the Assumption, an impressive late Gothic building from the 16th century. The interior houses a Renaissance altarpiece, paintings and sculptures, as well as a prominent Baroque altarpiece with a crucifix and a Romanesque carving of the Virgen de la Armedilla. Near the town, about three kilometers in the direction of Quintanilla de Onésimo, is the Monastery of Santa María de la Armedilla, a historical marvel built in the 15th century on the remains of a previous monastery.

Built in the 15th century, the monastery was founded to house devotees of an effigy of the Virgin that appeared on the site. Initially entrusted to the Cistercians, it later passed into the hands of the Order of Saint Jerome. The monastery was frequented by prominent figures, such as the Dukes of Alburquerque. Currently, only the belfry and two tangled Gothic vaults remain, with restoration plans.
