On the site of the old Gothic church of Santa María la Mayor, after its collapse, the current parish church of Nuestra Señora de la Asunción was built, although incorporating the sacristy, which had been renovated in the 17th century by the mannerist Benito del Castillo. . Justino Flórez designed it, between 1872 and 1910, not in the Neo-Gothic style - Viollet le Duc's, as was its initial purpose, but in Byzantine Neo-Romanesque, due to the scarcity of resources, despite the generous contribution of the people. As for the solutions used in its interior, in addition to the mural paintings by Julio Romero de Torres, the wide portico or narthex; the cruciform pillars and, on them, the transverse arches and formers that alternate with ribbed vaults; the dome on pendentives in the transept or the one with a quarter sphere in the transept chapel; all this shows the architectural eclecticism and the historicist "revival". Outside, a single high-rise tower with archivolt and rose window that emphasize the medievalism of the complex, buttresses, padded ashlars, oculus and wide stairways to solve the problem of unevenness.
