The Hermitage of the Most Holy Christ of the Valley is located about 15 km from Tembleque, in the province of Toledo, near the Algodor River. It is a place of great devotion for the residents of Tembleque and other nearby towns.

Tradition tells that in 1688, two pilgrims, Juan Bautista and Manuel Terrín, stayed at a local farmhouse and, in gratitude, painted an image of the crucified Christ using colors mixed with saliva. When he asked for oil to light the image, the owner miraculously found enough oil to last 24 hours, despite claiming to have none. This event was considered miraculous and prompted the construction of the hermitage at the initiative of Francisco Rodríguez Palmero, who donated the land to the Order of Saint John.

The hermitage has an interesting history that dates back to the 17th century and, like all religious sites, is linked to some miracle. Currently two pilgrimages are held a year and even without being able to attend any of them, the hermitage is a place worth visiting and you can also take the opportunity to take a break, next to it there is a picnic area with tables, benches and trees, ideal for a break.
