¿Hay algo que le gustaría destacar, añadir o aclarar?
It was founded in 1598 in the town of Fuentes de León, named for being of the Encomienda Mayor of the Priory of León of the Military Order of Santiago with a number of more than five hundred residents, beginning the works in mid-1593 with the contribution of donations and alms from all the residents of the town, being inaugurated in 1603.
These friars remained here until 1822, the year in which this convent was suppressed by military orders. The closure of the convent produced a strong upheaval in Fuentes, since the presence of the friars was of vital importance in religious, social and cultural life, they assisted the sick, fed the poor, preached and acted as counselors ... Fame of the miracles of the Saint attracted many faithful, his fame even reached Seville, which turned Fuentes into a small place of pilgrimage, forcing the town to change its infrastructure with the increase of inns, inns, increased sales of products of the land… Therefore, its closure produced an isolation that negatively affected the economic, social and cultural development of the town.
