Ermita de la Vera Cruz, Mudéjar hermitage church in Coria del Río, Spain.
The white-walled Ermita de la Vera Cruz stands on Cerro de San Juan hill, featuring a single nave divided by pointed transverse arches and external buttresses.
The hermitage, constructed during the reign of the Catholic Monarchs between 1474 and 1500, demonstrates architectural elements from multiple renovation periods throughout the centuries.
The hermitage contains a late Gothic crucifix from 1500, attributed to the Gil de Siloé school, which serves as the central figure of local Holy Week celebrations.
Visitors can access the hermitage through 33 steps from San Juan Street, with the main entrance located on the northeast facade of the building.
The 17th-century main altarpiece displays a Maltese cross at its top, suggesting historical connections between the hermitage and the Order of Malta.
