Hospital de San Cebrián, a former pilgrims' hospital.
This house, built in 1604 with a large corral at the entrance, was a hospital for the poor and pilgrims.
It was common for pilgrims to pass through this area given the importance of this land in the Order of Santiago during the late Middle Ages.
Some references to this order and the apostle St. James can be seen in the local church.
