This church, built in the 15th century and completely remodelled in the 18th century, is the seat of the brotherhood commonly known as Los Panaderos (bakers), given that it was founded by an assocation of bakers in the late 16th century. This guild participates in Holy Week processions on Holy Wednesday. In the sacristy, a rich collection of inlaid boxes from the 17th century and by Francisco Pacheco is kept. Among the many valuable paintings, of special note are the Aparición de la Virgen a San Bernardo (Appearance of the Virgin Mary to Saint Bernard), by Juan de Roelas and a series on the Mysteries of the Rosary by Valdés Leal. In addition, of equal importance are the 'Virgin of the Rosary', attributed to Pedro Roldán, and the altarpiece of the Immaculate, with paintings by Alonso Vázquez and engravings by Gáspar Núñez Delgado.
