A church rebuilt in the early 14th century by Gonzalo Ruiz de Toledo on a mosque, with the minaret turned into a Mudéjar bell tower. This card covers the Chapel of the Conception, where the lord of Orgaz is buried: around 1586, for El Greco's Burial of the Count of Orgaz, the parish priest Andrés Núñez de Toledo reformed it with a new square plan and a half-sphere vault. It is visited to see the painting, and an entrance fee is charged.
