This church, located in the historic center of Ronda, is from the 16th century and is famous for keeping the incorrupt hand of Saint Teresa of Jesus, a 17th-century reliquary. It is said that when exhuming her remains, Father Jerónimo Gracián cut off her hand and handed it over to the Order of the Discalced Carmelites. After many trips between Spain and Portugal, it finally fell into the hands of the nuns of the Ronda convent in the 19th century. The reliquary, in the shape of a hand, is made of silver inlaid with precious stones.
