Iglesia de la Inmaculada Concepción

The Iglesia de la Inmaculada Concepción stands between Trescasas and Sonsoto with neoclassical architecture featuring a single nave and two sections topped by a barrel vault. The church is owned by Trescasas City Council and functions as an active parish within the Diocese of Segovia.

King Carlos III commissioned the construction of this church between 1774 and 1777, with architect José Díaz Gamones supervising the project while working at La Granja Palace. This building reflects a period when royal architecture shaped even smaller settlements.

Inside, seven simple baroque altars display large canvas paintings, including six works by Ramón Bayeu and a main altar painting by Mariano Salvador Maella. These artworks reflect the artistic standards that shaped this parish church when it was built.

The building sits within walking distance between the two settlements along a historic trading route at the foot of the Sierra de Guadarrama mountains. Visitors should know that the church opens for services on varying days and the best views of the surrounding hills can be enjoyed from outside.

The church stands along an ancient trading path to the port of Malagosto, which was part of the famous drove roads that herders used for centuries. This historic route passed directly by the building, making the location a rest point for travelers crossing the mountains.
