Beautiful setting next to the ruins of the Castle of Calatrava la Vieja. Here is the Virgin of the Incarnation, patron saint of Carrión, guarded but in full view of all, until Easter Sunday, which is taken to the town of Carrión where it remains for 40 days

Actually, it is thought that the current building comes from the Arab period. In fact, some hypotheses suggest that it could have been a mosque, since in its northern part there is still a horseshoe arch with an alfiz. In Christian times, it is said that the hermitage was dedicated to Santa María de los Mártires because the Calatravos killed in the battle of Alarcos were buried in a nearby cemetery. However, in the 18th century it came under the current dedication.
