Ermita de la Soledad (Hermitage of Solitude)
The hermitage was built in the 18th century under the patronage of Saint Mary. The name "La Soledad" (Solitude) refers to the Virgin's state after the death and burial of her son, Jesus. The image depicts Mary in a prayerful posture, with her hands crossed and a rosary in her hand.
In light of the Virgin Mary's intense suffering, she is serene and hopeful about the salvation of humanity.
In the iconographic representation of the Virgin Mary, she is covered with a blue mantle and pink robe. In this chapel, however, Mary is covered with a black mantle and a white habit, a symbol of mourning and sorrow. Inside the chapel, the space opens up through a barrel vault with lunettes. A dome rises above the transept on stucco pendentives.
Four angels. Two side doors with pointed arches lead into the central nave. The tiled roof above the transept forms a false cone.
At the foot of the altar, an atmosphere of spiritual contemplation prevails during the traditional retreat. Pilgrims prostrate themselves at the prayer window, assuming the same prayerful posture as the Virgin Mary. The wooden roof, supported by four Doric columns with elaborate carvings of plant motifs, is very well preserved.
