Santuario de la Virgen de Arcos, Catholic pilgrimage church in Albalate del Arzobispo, Spain.

The sanctuary stands on an elongated rocky spur, featuring a Baroque church with three naves, a large dome, and adjacent guest quarters.

The construction of the sanctuary began in the 17th century and underwent expansion during the 18th century, receiving cultural property status in 1983.

The interior walls display Baroque decorations with geometric patterns and plant motifs painted in bright colors across vaults and pillars.

Access to the church requires climbing a wide staircase leading to an open atrium, with guided visits coordinated through the local brotherhood.

According to tradition, the Virgin appeared to a shepherd named Natalio at this location, miraculously restoring his lost hand.
