The Church "San Jose" is situated, as it is in all villages, just off the square. Construction began during the mid-17th Century. Its walls are made of adobe and its foundations are built on boulders. The wooden ceiling teasel has 3 bells in a belfry and its style is Gothic, the nave is 35 meters tall. The high altar is surmounted by a figure of God the Father with two angels at his side, made with very bright colors. The niches display images of the patron Saint Joseph, a Calvary and St. Peter and above those of San Isidro and Santa Dominican.
