    The Iglesia del Dulce Nombre de Jesús y Santa Misericordia in Cantillana is a beautiful historic building originally built in the 16th century.
    This church has a rich history and was once used as a hospital, probably run by a brotherhood. Originally the church had one nave, but later another was added on the side of the epistle. The facade of the church is made of exposed brick and is topped with an artistic tower with a tiled facade.
    Inside the church, the ceilings are made of wooden beams, with a gable roof in the main naves and simple chapel floors in the side aisles. The entrance to the church is in a typical Mudéjar style, with an oculus formed by bricks surrounded by blue, white and honey-coloured tiles. The tower has a semicircular arch with alfiz and is topped with a mixtilinear pediment and a cast iron weathercock. The church houses an 18th century altarpiece, on which there is an image of the Holy Jesus of the School of Seville, together with a painting of the Virgin of Mercy. Another special feature of the church is the simpecado of the Virgin of Belén, a precious plate with an embroidery of silver on red velvet.
    The church is also the seat of the brotherhood of San Benito Abad of Cantillana, and from the last weekend of August a pilgrimage to the hermitage of the Saint in Castilblanco de los Arroyos starts from this church.

      Here too there is a stork's nest on the tower.
