Built in the early 16th century, it was one of the chapels that emerged in the outlying neighborhoods of Almagro. In the 17th century, it was expanded to include the chapel of Our Lady of Sorrows. In the 19th century, it housed images from the nearby Hermitage of Santiago, which was in poor condition. It was destroyed during the Civil War and rebuilt in the 1980s by architect Miguel Fisac, who applied modern techniques such as the use of white concrete in flexible formwork for the porch.

Destroyed in the 1936 war, it also housed the Brotherhood of Santiago, since its hermitage disappeared in the 19th century. On July 23, 1983, the new hermitage was inaugurated on the ruins of the old one. The porch, covered with white concrete cast in flexible formwork, is particularly noteworthy.

Almagro's Plaza Mayor is the most visited and one of the busiest squares in the city. It dates back to the Middle Ages, with arcades and corridors, and underwent a major transformation in the 16th century as a result of the arrival of the Fuggers, German bankers who were subjects of Emperor Charles V. Throughout history, it has received other names, such as Plaza de la Constitución, Plaza de la República, Plaza Real, and even Plaza de España after the Spanish Civil War. The square measures approximately 104.5 meters by 37 meters. It has an irregular rectangular layout. On one of its larger sides, it opens onto the so-called Palacio Maestral (Master Palace). This square also houses the Town Hall, but perhaps what deserves special mention is that in the former inn in this main square of Almagro, we find none other than the Corral de Comedias (Comedy Playhouse), the only one of its kind in the world, declared a monument in 1955. In this square, there are shops where you can buy crafts and typical food from the town and the surrounding area. There are also several bars and restaurants with impressive terraces where you can enjoy tapas and wine, or enjoy a home-cooked menu or typical dishes from La Mancha.

The sanctuary of Nuestra Señora de las Nieves is a complex of buildings around the hermitage where the Marian image of the Virgen de las Nieves is venerated. Among these buildings we find an irregularly shaped bullring. It is worth knowing.
