The Iglesia de San Miguel is a small, classical Baroque church from the mid 17th century. It was built by the Cofradía de San Miguel brotherhood where the Chapel of San Juan de Letrán used to stand.

The church has a lintelled façade framed by pilasters that support an entablature with triplets and a split pediment. It features a simple belfry adorned with pinnacles. The church tower split in 1694 and ran the risk of collapsing, so the town council authorised one of the towers of the Puerta de Jerez to be used as a bell tower.

The interior of the Church of San Miguel consists of a single nave with a Mudéjar coffered ceiling. It has a simple altarpiece, with an image of Nuestra Señora de la Victoria in the main, the patron of the brotherhood of La Borriquita, and in the upper part there is an image of the archangel San Miguel, holder of the temple. There is another altarpiece with the devout image of San Antonio de Padua, an 18th-century work attributed to Diego Roldán Serrallonga.

Since 1963, it has been the canonical see of the Hermandad de la Entrada en Jerusalén brotherhood, popularly known as "La Borriquita", sharing the see with the Brotherhood of San Antobio.
