Aproximación a las costumbres litúrgicas y usos devocionales de las capillas, ermitas y oratorios de Jerez de la Frontera

Abstract

In addition to its parishes and convents, Jerez de la Frontera also had a dense network of secondary buildings of worship, of lesser architectural importance, which contributed to the sacralisation of the city and its environs. These small churches - mainly hermitages, chapels and oratories - provided the population with access to certain sacraments, while at the same time serving as places of veneration for some of the historical images of greatest devotion for the people of Jerez.
