Built on the history of four centuries, it tells us about time and its art: from the Mudejar to the 20th century. Its four Renaissance columns were the cause to stop the works and are today the reason to visit it. The sacristy is from the 16th century, solid, stony and with details on its walls decorated with magnificent grisaille.

The statue is located on the Paseo de la Libertad, next to the Provincial Council. Made in bronze, it is the work of the sculptor José Enrique Melero who made it in 2004. The two characters, Don Quixote and Sancho, are in lively conversation. Sancho listens patiently and Don Quixote is very expressive.
