Iglesia del Rosario, Roquetas de Mar

The church building features a rectangular layout with brick construction and contains a main altar crowned with a traditional Baroque altarpiece and dome.

Built between 1747 and 1750, the church replaced a small chapel in the castle of Santa Ana after local residents petitioned the bishop for a larger worship space.

The selection of Virgin of the Rosary as patron saint occurred in April 1797 through a child's random selection during a municipal gathering.

Located at Calle Real 0b in Roquetas de Mar, the church maintains regular service schedules and welcomes visitors throughout the year for religious ceremonies.

The interior displays a collection of paintings by artist Jesus de Perceval from 1957, depicting various scenes related to the Virgin Mary.
