1- CHURCH OF SAN MATEO<\/strong>
There are references to its existence since 1399, and it has been the main church since 1546. The current building began its construction in the 16th century in a late Gothic style, under the auspices of the 1st Marquess of Tarifa, but it remained unfinished. The facade was completed in neoclassical style at the end of the 18th century.
Inside, the church features three naves, with the side aisles covered by ribbed vaults and the central nave, taller and adorned with rich relief figurative iconography. The Chapel of Sagrario, constructed within a pre-existing structure dedicated to San Pedro, stands out. This chapel houses a remarkable collection of images and altarpieces that originated from a larger altarpiece dating back to 1611, which was dismantled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2- CHURCH OF SAN FRANCISCO DE AS\u00cdS<\/strong>
It is the second parish of Tarifa, dating back to the 16th century. It was rebuilt in the 18th century in Neoclassical style. Inside there is imagery ranging from the 16th to the 20th century. The facade has an unusual composition as the entrance is located beneath the bell tower. Above the door, framed by a stone cord, you can see the coat of arms of the Franciscans (the arms of Christ and Saint Francis intertwined) and a painted inscription.
DEO OPTIMO MAXIMO = “To God, most good, most great”
Pract. Eccl. = “Ecclesiastical practice”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3- CHAPEL OF INMACULADA<\/strong>
Belonging to the current Nursing Home of San Jos\u00e9, it has its origins in the Hospital of San Bartolom\u00e9 or Divine Mercy. The current chapel was built between 1910 and 1929 in an eclectic style. Inside, the image of the Holy Christ of Charity from the 18th century stands out, the titular figure of the Brotherhood of the same name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4- CHURCH OF SANTIAGO<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This temple is one of the oldest in Tarifa and marks the spot where Christians conquered the city in 1292. The facade with a bell-gable retains decorative paintings. On one side, in the 16th century, the Gothic chapel of La Pur\u00edsima is added, featuring reliefs inside with the Tetramorphs, also known as the symbols of the four Evangelists. The entire rear part, a nave with interconnected side chapels through arches, is in ruins. The entire temple is in a worrying state of neglect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5-SANTA MAR\u00cdA CHURCH<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the oldest Christian temple in Tarifa and was its first Main Church, but today is deconsecrated. It was built in two phases: first, a qubba with islamic inspiration, which now corresponds to the presbytery, and later, three naves separated by pointed arches were added. The side entrance is mannerist. Inside, you can see remnants of roman construction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6- CHAPEL OF THE HOSPITAL \u201cHOSPITALITO\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This building, though extensively altered on the exterior, dates back to the 16th century when it served as the residence of the City Regidor Juan Jim\u00e9nez Serrano. In his will, Juan Jim\u00e9nez donated the building to establish the Hospital of Our Lady of Immaculate Conception and Saint John the Baptist. While it has undergone changes, it still retains a beautiful courtyard that once featured paintings and a small chapel with a gothic vault. The chapel was redecorated in the late 18th century with painted figures and poems dedicated to the Immaculate Conception and denouncing the Zodiac as a way to approach her. It remained associated with the hospital until 1847.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
