Image of Cabezarrubias del Puerto, not of the place itself.

Celebration shared with neighbouring Fuencaliente in honour of the Virgen de los Baños, in September, held since 1270 according to local legend: a soldier returning from fighting against the Moors found a small image of the Virgin beside a spring and took it with him to Cabezarrubias, but the figure kept disappearing and reappearing at the spring, until a hermitage was built on that very spot, which today is the church of Fuencaliente.
