Del Almendral Hermitage
The location of the Del Almendral Hermitage offers the best views of the municipality. It is located in the vicinity of the prehistoric burial site, although we can also visit the remains of the medieval occupations. The temple is built in honor of Saint María Magdalena, patron saint of Puerto Serrano, although it originally served as a necropolis. It was in the cave of the same name that the image was hidden during the War of Independence, until it was found and brought back to the municipality. According to oral tradition, a shepherd heard the Patron Saint and, while digging through the bushes, found a cave where the carving was to be found. On the outskirts of the Hermitage there is a system of corridors that cross the interior of the hill.
