A charity and health institution housed for centuries in a building begun in 1530, of Mannerist hospital architecture. The plan is rectangular, made of several blocks and garden areas; the wings have been much reworked, but two portals topped by a balcony window survive. The Santa Isabel chapel is attached to it. The institution still provides social services in the municipality.
