The Shrine to Our Lady of Consolation of Calvary was built in the 1990s. It is located about 8 kilometres from Osuna on the Martín de la Jara road, in a mountain area known as “El Calvario”, as it is next to a forest and the ruins of a former convent of the Recollects of the same name.

The Pilgrimage of Osuna’s patron saint, Our Lady of Consolation, takes place every year, on the last Sunday in April, at this Shrine. At dawn, a crowd gathers at the patron saint’s church and make the pilgrimage to “El Calvario”. The people of Osuna spend a fun-filled day marked with tradition and symbolism in contact with nature.
