Pilgrimage
In 1905, on the occasion of the constitution of the Pious Association of Our Lady of Good Success, the acts that should constitute the festival were determined:
First Sunday in September. Holy mass, procession and pilgrimage.
Monday Dedicated to the deceased, with pickle distribution to all those attending the liturgical events.
Festival declared of Provincial Tourist Interest.

Building
There are references to its existence in the 10th century, although the current construction must have begun in 1766 according to the inscription on the south door: "This work was done while the priest of the Güergas billa and administrator of the Virgen del Buen Suceso was Don José Suárez. Bayón and butler Manuel de Bobis, resident of said billa, year 1766", having noted different subsequent reforms, the last being after the Civil War. It has a Latin cross floor plan, semicircular arches and a barrel vault with exterior buttresses, a carved stonework, a porch with three arches at the main entrance and a belfry at the foot.
Inside, a fence from 1854 separates the most sacred area, where the image of the Virgin, which represents The Immaculate Conception, is kept. The image on display and the altarpiece are from the mid-20th century, as the altarpiece was lost during the Civil War. The oldest Virgin, from the 18th century, is known as the “Little or Primitive Virgin” and is the one that goes out in procession.
Next to the Sanctuary is the house of the Novenas or the Hermit, which welcomed the faithful who came
