Ermita del Santísimo Cristo, Neoclassical hermitage church in Miguelturra, Spain

The cylindrical structure of Ermita del Santísimo Cristo features a large dome supported by an octagonal drum and topped with a decorative lantern.

The construction of this religious building began in 1772 under Antonio Berete's design and reached completion in 1815, following a miraculous event.

The interior contains four chapels with altarpieces from the 19th and 20th centuries, oriented precisely toward the cardinal points of the compass.

Three entrance doors provide access to the hermitage, with the main portal distinguished by columns with Doric capitals and decorated arches.

Local residents refer to this building as 'la torre gorda' due to its substantial circular structure that stands out in the Miguelturra skyline.
