Around the town
Perfect conditions are provided around the town in order to enjoy nature:
The Hermitage of Las Cruces
Located in the north slope of Sierra Ortigas, it was built after the apparition of the Virgin to Bastián,
a shepherd who was taking care of goats. Here we can find the Baroque altarpiece from a chapel of
the Palace of Marqués de Monsatlú, as well as the statue of the Virgin by the sculptor Don Pedro
Torre Isunza. The hermit’s house and a large living room are found in the same place.
The festivity of the Virgin is celebrated on October 12, the date when she was seen by the shepherd.
