"It is a door with a semicircular arch, embedded in a tower with a square section, finished by a dome and bell tower. Its façade was designed with a certain artistic taste, following a classic model at the Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando (Madrid): the design by Giacomo Vignola, to which an attic with a cartouche, two vases was superimposed lighters and a large coat of arms of Carlos III carved in granite."
