Osuna-Torre de la Merced
La Mercedes Church and Tower

The current La Merced Church was built in 1650, although it was extensively renovated in the second half of the 18th century. The friars arrived in Osuna in 1609. They initially settled in the Shrine to Santa Ana, on the outskirts of the city. After two failed attempts, they built a new monastery on its current site in 1637.

Nuestra Señora del Rosario de Fátima Church

The church was built in the mid-20th century by the Osuna City Council for a new district. It was blessed in 1953. The temple is dedicated Our Lady of Fatima to commemorate the presence of her image in Osuna when she travelled through Spain. Her image presides over the high altar.

Osuna-Iglesia de Santo Domingo
Nuestra Señora de la Asunción Church (Santo Domingo Parish)

In 1513, the 4th Count of Ureña gifted the old San Sebastián Chapel and the adjoining charity hospital to the friars of the Order of Preachers so that they could found their convent. The Count had it recorded that the Chapel should not be demolished but rather incorporated into the new church. Its construction was completed on 7 March 1547.

Santa Clara Church

This convent was founded in 1550 by the wife of the 4th Count of Ureña, María de la Cueva. It was initially located in the southern part of the town. However, the Poor Clare sisters did not consider the venue very suitable. They exchanged the convent for building and properties on La Huerta Street in 1559, where it still stands today.

Shrine to Nuestra Señora de Consolation del Calvario

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.
