The Nuestra Señora de las Nieves Church is located in the city of Ruerrero in the municipality of Valderredible (Cantabria.)

The building was built between 1748 and 1757 in the Baroque style, supposedly made by master stonemasons from Pámanes.

This rectangular temple consists of a nave with a side chapel and an attached tower. The façade of the Church has a pediment and volutes, this façade is after the date of construction of the temple, perhaps the 18th century.

The beautiful façade is made up of a molded arch between boxed pilasters and an entablature of the Doric order topped with curved shapes in oculi, spirals, vases and fins with spirals.

Inside we can see a romantic style baptismal font and images of San Roque and Nuestra Señora de las Nieves.

In the southwest corner of the transept we find a vertical sundial at noon with an engraved date that has the year 1772.
