After the walk, what better way to end the visit to Villanueva de los Infantes than with some Coca-Colas, some cold beers and some tapas in a typical local bar right in the Plaza Mayor, as its name suggests.

On one side is the Church of Santo Domingo, built in the 17th century following the principles of the Counter-Reformation. Highlights include the main altar with its Baroque altarpiece featuring Solomonic columns. Above it are interesting frescoes depicting Saint Dominic. Among the side chapels, the Chapel of Souls, founded by the Ballesteros family, the Chapel of Ecce Homo, commissioned by the Duke of San Fernando, and the Chapel of Our Lady of the Rosary, commissioned by the Bustos family, are particularly noteworthy. However, the most visited site is the convent, or rather, the cell where Francisco de Quevedo died in 1645. Quevedo's cell, open to the public, is the exact spot where the writer passed away shortly after arriving in Villanueva, already very ill. Following the confiscation of church property in 1844, the convent was closed, and today part of the building houses cultural events and a hotel. The opening hours and admission prices are as follows: Opening Hours: Monday from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM. Closed Tuesdays. Wednesday to Sunday from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. and from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Admission: €2 (Reduced: €1).

It is a building that was constructed in 1526, but was seized by the state in 1844 and passed into the hands of the town council, except for the church and the sacristy. The latter is in the shape of a Latin cross and has three chapels on either side. It was built in the spirit of the Counter-Reformation. The cloister has also been preserved within the convent, and it is the venue for cultural events such as the International Poetry Competition, which has been organized annually since 1981 by the Francisco de Quevedo Literary Order.

The beautiful main square was built by the same architect with the intention of being like an atrium to frame it and integrate it into the complex. The square is an enormous rectangle measuring almost 53 m long by 21 m wide: on one side, the Town Hall with a cantilevered balcony on wooden corbels; on the other, the Casa Grande de la Hospedería. It has a carriage yard with wooden galleries opening onto it. From its sides arise the brick arches that give way to the wide, straight radial streets of this town.

San Carlos del Valle opens from its splendid Plaza Mayor with an orthogonal projection and an almost round perimeter. Everything extends around a radiated origin, the centre of that circumference, the church of Santísimo Cristo del Valle, where the peak of the compass overwhelms us. It is a late baroque church, with certain influences of the neoclassical style. It is an immense cube with four towers superimposed at its corners and an enormous dome that emerges over the building. The temple has four facades, two of which have a main door of extraordinary beauty and well-deserved study in their centre.

The church was built on an old sanctuary-hermitage between the 12th and 13th centuries. Its style is late baroque, with some neoclassical elements. It has a Greek cross plan inscribed in a square. Inside, there is the image of the miraculous Christ. The exterior façade is built of brick, with noble parts in stone. Four corner towers and a huge dome emerge above the building. The rough and grotesque human figures in the corners represent the masses who sang and danced during the town festivals. The main doorway, conceived as a gigantic altarpiece, faces the square. The enclosure is covered by a large cased dome composed of a drum, half orange and lantern on a molded ring.
