The Church of the Holy Cross of the Vote, built in the 16th century in late Romanesque style, houses a replica of the Holy Cross. The current building is a later restoration, as much of the original structure was destroyed by an earthquake in 1804. In 1611, during renovation works, a cross was discovered in one of the walls. Admission is free and it is located at Calle Juan de la Cruz number 8.

The Church of the Holy Cross of the Vote is an architectural gem that dates back to the 16th century and is characterized by its late Romanesque style. Inside it houses a replica of the Holy Cross, a symbol of deep religious meaning for the faithful. However, the building we see today is the result of a later restoration, as much of the original structure was irreparably damaged due to a devastating earthquake that shook the region in 1804.
