Head of the Church of “Nuestra Señora de los Remedios” Sanctuary of Fuensanta (Albacete), built between the 16th and 18th centuries, over an earlier chapel. It was made of masonry with ashlars corners in the shape of a chain as reinforcement, oriented towards the East, as was customary in religious architecture. The wall attached to the facade is part of the cloister of the sanctuary.

San Isidro Chapel of Motilleja (Albacete, Spain), under a stormy sky in the high and forlorn place where it is located. It seems that the cross of the roof wanted to appear prominently on the composition.
-Español:
Ermita de San isidro de Motilleja (Albacete), bajo un tormentoso cielo, en el elevado solitario paraje donde se halla. Asemeja que la cruz ansiaba aparecer destacada en la composición.

A pavilion which serves as little chapel called “Arc of Hoya Murciana” so known for the name of the place where it is located. Built in 1980, is one of the most significant milestones on the “Camino de la Virgen” (Virgin Path), so named for being, every year, the path of the “Virgen de los Remedios” pilgrimage, a religious celebration that is held in mid May in La Roda (Albacete, Spain), when the Virgin is moved from this town to their sanctuary in the neighboring town of Fuensanta, fulfilling an existing true tradition since 1592, according to documentary evidence.

-Español:
“Camino sagrado”.
Templete, denominado “Arco de Hoya Murciana”, así conocido por el nombre del paraje donde, a modo de pequeña capilla, se haya ubicado. Construído en 1980, es uno de los hitos del “Camino de la Virgen”, llamado así por transitar por él todos los años la Romería de la Virgen de los Remedios, festividad que se celebra a mediados de Mayo en La Roda, y en la que la Virgen se desplaza desde esa población, hasta su santuario en la vecina localidad de Fuensanta, cumpliendo así con una tradición de la que hay constancia documental desde el año 1592.
