This Calvary, built by the Santiago Ap stol church possibly in the last third of the nineteenth century, which has data on its installation since 1869, is located in the district of San Benito, next to the hermitage of San Benito Abad. It was the subject of an intervention at the beginning of the 20th century, with ecological influences, remaining as it is shown today, representing one of the best examples of this typology of buildings. The Calvarians were installed on the outskirts of the population centers, these serve to entrust the divinity to the people who embark on a trip or on their return, it also emerges as a Christian place for the religious manifestation of Holy Week, as well as Architectural space for the recreation of the catechetical values of the Passion, Death and Resurrection of Christ.
