Calle Obispo Carrascosa, 14. Old Crown jail, built by Bishop Juan Muñoz de la Cueva, whose episcopal shield is found over the main entrance door. He carries a deer that goes to drink at a fountain, also outlined, with a large antler and a passage between branches. It is stamped with a flowery Latin cross and capelo, from which the cords hang with six tassels on each side. Surrounding the shield is an inscription that reads: GLORIA TIBI TRINITAS SICUT CERVUS DESIDERAT AD FONTES AQUARUM. Like the other blazons of this bishop, it has another inscription at its base that says: AVE MA YEAR 1719.
