This configuration gives it a sober and balanced image, fully integrated into the historic urban landscape of Villanueva de los Infantes.

In addition to its constructive interest, there is also the artistic value of the interior, where A high-quality Baroque carving of Jesus Rescued is preserved., along with a canvas of Saint Gregory and mural paintings in one of the chapels located at the foot of the temple.
