On the outside is its most characteristic element, <strong>the main façade</strong> which is located <strong>on one side</strong> and is posed as an altarpiece. This door is made up of two bodies, the lower one with a semicircular arch for access with Ionic columns with the crosses and scallops of the Order of Santiago, and the upper one with a high relief representing <strong>Santiago Matamoros</strong> on horseback, dressed as a soldier and defeating the infidels with the aim of making the entire population aware of the new Christian power.
