Church of Saint Michael the Archangel

Highlight • Religious Site

The most symbolic element of the Church is undoubtedly the tower that stands out above the other buildings due to its 64 meters high.
It was built between 1749 and 1756 and is the work of Juan Alfonso de Ladera.

Church of Saint Mary of the Incarnation

Highlight • Religious Site

Symbol of the city, this marvelous Church was built on the highest point and it is believed that it was initially erected in the 1st century, although its current form was finished in the 16th century. It can be visited inside and it is highly recommended to do so!
