Ermita de la Virgen de Sieteiglesias, Hermitage church in Matapozuelos, Spain.
The Ermita de la Virgen de Sieteiglesias sits between the Adaja and Eresma rivers, featuring three naves and flat ceilings in its brick structure.
Saint Turibius of Astorga established the hermitage in the 4th century along with six monks, each residing in individual cells.
The Virgin's festival occurs on Easter Monday and September 8th, with processions, rosary prayers, and regional dances accompanied by drums and dulzainas.
The hermitage includes an attached caretaker's house with a kitchen and two small rooms, though it currently stands unoccupied.
During festivities, young locals form human towers to place handkerchiefs on the Virgin's crown, which are later returned from the caretaker's house balcony.
