The hermitage of San Cosme and San Damián, is located on the north bank of the River Duero, somewhat far from the town center and omo its own indica name is dedicated to the patrons of our locality, the medical saints Cosme and Damian.
Although we do not know for sure its origin, it may have been associated with the mediaval population located in its vicinity since, in the report sent to the royal geographer Tomás López at the end of the eighteenth century, it is affirmed ".... which is very old and its chapel manifests itself to be of the times of the Goths....". In any case, in its current state, it is a building erected at various times in history from the lower Medieval period until the nineteenth century.
The main altarpiece was executed in 1,767 by the Arander master Manuel de Oria and is presided over by the images of the medical saints Cosme and Damian. On both sides, images of San Isidro and Santa María de la Cabeza are located, topping the whole with a canvas of the Immaculate.
