Iglesia de Nuestro Padre Jesús - Castillo de Locubín, Jaén, España - This Old Church on Waymarking.com

Construida hacía 1700, fue restaurada tras la guerra civil, conservando las pinturas al temple del camarín, así como la talla original del Patrón, Ntro. Padre Jesús Nazareno. Situada junto al Parque Municipal.

Situada cerca de la iglesia parroquial encontramos esta pequeña ermita dedicada a Jesús Nazareno. En su interior se puede apreciar una bella imagen de Jesús Nazareno, de Martínez Montañés. Según cuenta la tradición, durante el traslado del Nazareno a Alcalá la Real los portadores pasaron la noche en el castillo. Al día siguiente, la carga se hizo tan pesada que fue imposible proseguir el camino. Ante este hecho, los portadores decidieron construirle una ermita y convertir a Jesús Nazareno en patrón de la localidad. Las fiestas en honor a Nuestro Padre Jesús Nazareno se celebran del 7 al 11 de septiembre.

Located near the parish church, we find this small hermitage dedicated to Jesus of Nazareth. Inside, you can see a beautiful image of Jesus of Nazareth, by Martínez Montañés. According to tradition, during the transfer of the Nazarene to Alcalá la Real, the bearers spent the night in the castle. The next day, the load became so heavy that it was impossible to continue on their way. Faced with this fact, the bearers decided to build a hermitage and make Jesus of Nazareth the patron saint of the town. The festivities in honor of Our Father Jesus of Nazareth are celebrated from September 7 to 11.
