Capilla de Nuestra Señora de la Soledad vista desde una de las calles del municipio de Tocina
Shrine to Nuestra Señora de la Soledad

The Shrine was built in the 17th century by the devotees of the namesake Confraternity. Renovations in the 18th century have given it its current appearance. The external buttresses that support the wall and its large size are worthy of note.

Parish Church of Nuestra Señora de la Estrella

As regards the original church we only have evidence that it existed in 1609, since the altarpiece currently in the tabernacle was made at that time, and the chapel also dates from that period. As for the current church, we know that it was restored in 1731 by Diego Antonio Díaz and the general style of the church is typical of this period.
