Church dedicated to Saint James (there is a figure representing him riding a horse next to the bell tower) located in the highest part of the town. Its construction was promoted by the archbishop Xelmirez in 1114, but it has been rebuilt in several occasions until the current late-Gothic structure was finished in the 16th century. It has a main nave divided in three sections and up to five chapels on both sides dedicated to San Benedict, San Sebastian, the Immaculate Conception, Jesus of Nazareth and the Souls.
