The Ermita del Cristo de Berrocal, also known as Nuestra Señora del Tránsito, is located to the southeast of Cardeñosa on a hill. Of simple design, it houses a 16th century altarpiece and a side chapel with the tombstone of Álvarez de Águila. It is believed to have been founded in 1473 as a Franciscan convent and, according to legends, its origin is due to an apparition of the Virgin to a shepherd. Masses and festivities are celebrated in its esplanade, such as that of the Virgin on August 15 and the patronal feast in honor of the Christ of San Marcelo.
