Jesus of the Porter Lodge
Before the Hospital of San Juan de Dios, the image so venerated in these times was captured in the goal of the temple, hence the name of Jesusito de la Portería. The place has become well known among the faithful as many miracles are attributed to the image. If you want to fully enjoy this devotion, the festivities take place between July 31 and August 6, a week in which there are various religious celebrations such as baptisms.
