The first known data of this hermitage date back to the end of the 15th century. It was a rural chapel far from the urban area. Gothic style, it has a single nave covered with ribbed vault topped in an apse that is marked externally. It conserves a Renaissance and another Mannerist cover. The hermitage had a Gothic image of the Virgin of the same name,

At the end of the XVI century, the building is part of the Convent of the Order of the Discalced Franciscans, although, due to the state in ruins in which it was, it is abandoned by the friars to move to the current Almendralejo street, next to the Church del Carmen, during the 18th century.

With the disentailments of the nineteenth century, the building passes into private hands. It was recently acquired by the City Council that rehabilitated it and gave it to the Archbishop, recovering the church's liturgical and worship function.
