The Seven-Cornered Chapel, or Chapel of Our Lady of Exile, was built between the 17th and 18th centuries, in an early Baroque style, as can be seen from its decorative constraint and the linearity of its portal.
 
Originally adjoining a walled Quinta, which included a Manor House, it has the shape of a hexagon, very unusual in this region, with some remarkable masonry inside and out. The most interesting parts are the main façade, with the coat of arms of the noble family that commissioned it, the internal arch supported on pillars under which the altar is placed, and the shrine on the adjacent wall.
