At the exit of the town towards Alovera, today framed by well-kept gardens, is the Soledad hermitage, a very typical 18th-century building, with a wide porch, a single nave, a wide transept and a dome with a lantern, successfully restored . Its factory is made of brick and stone facing. The portico was built around 1955. With a single nave, it has a marked transept and a high central body with a vault over the transept. Inside the temple there is a valuable image of the Virgin, from the 18th century. The hermitage of Soledad is a religious construction from the 17th century, with a wide portico. It is distributed in a single nave with a dome. Inside it houses an image of the patron saint of Azuqueca, carved by Don Juan Pascual Merino.

Water supply system from the 18th century. It supplied water for the old Palace of the Marqués de Campoflorido and the village garden through a novel system of "hydraulic ram and" communicating vessels "installed in two towers that supplied from a spring to the palace (400 meters). In the place there is an explanatory poster. Be respectful of the environment and our historical legacy 🇪🇦. Interesting as the end of the route and enjoy the sunset.
