It was erected in the mid-17th century, on the summit of the Cerro de San Crist\u00f3bal, although it underwent important reforms later on. The ancient image of Our Lady of the Remedies was brought in 1592 from the capital of Granada, and the numerous miracles attributed to the image meant that it had to be exposed to public worship. Its interior has a Latin cross floor plan with a tribune-chorus at the base, and the main nave and the transept are covered with a half-barrel vault. We highlight the mural paintings of Felipe V and Maria Luisa de Saboya, as well as the coats of arms of the city of V\u00e9lez-M\u00e1laga and the Bourbon monarch that can be found in the oval medallions of the pendentives. Special mention should be made of the chapel, which has a square floor plan, where the Sacred Image of the Virgin, attributed to Mart\u00edn de Aldehuela, is located.<\/p>\n
Towards the end of the last century, the painter Evaristo Guerra, from V\u00e9lez, decorated the interior walls of the chapel using the fresco technique, painting various landscapes and buildings in his characteristic style; this has come to be known as the \u00abtransparent chapel\u00bb<\/strong>, as its walls reveal the full scope of V\u00e9lez-M\u00e1laga\u2019s landscape and urban setting.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":8626,"template":"","class_list":["post-4454","que-hacer","type-que-hacer","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/turismoaxarquiacostadelsol.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/que-hacer\/4454","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/turismoaxarquiacostadelsol.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/que-hacer"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/turismoaxarquiacostadelsol.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/que-hacer"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/turismoaxarquiacostadelsol.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8626"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/turismoaxarquiacostadelsol.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4454"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
