After removing the baroque altarpiece for restoration, a mural painting of a Calvario, which can be dated to the mid-14th century, has come to light on the back wall. At the time of removing the altarpiece, the knees of Christ were revealed. Afterwards, the restorer Beatriz de Colmenares and her team continued to remove pieces of plaster until the figure of Christ was revealed and, on one side and the other, the figures of Saint John (on the right) and the holy women (on the left), among whom are the Virgin Mary, fainting, and Mary Magdalene lamenting.</p>]]></description>
