The statue is attributed to Pablo de Rojas (1952). The statue of “Jesús en la Columna” belongs to the studio of Alonso de Mena.
The Church of San Francisco has a box floor plan, where we find a nave and five sections covered with groin vaults reinforced with transverse arches (half-point arches that reinforce the barrel and groin vaults).
The chapel of Cristo de la Columna is located in the third section, it is characterized by its rectangular floor plan covered with a half-barrel vault and lunettes and subdivided into three sections by transverse arches.
Also noteworthy is the chapel of the Virgen de la Milagrosa, located in the fifth section, with a square floor plan and smaller and covered with a domed dome (dome formed by four curved rectangular panels based on a square or rectangle).
In the fifth section we also find the chapel of San Francisco de Asís, this is made up of a square space covered with a spherical cap vault on pendentives, with abundant decoration of plasterwork and a dressing room decorated with paintings representing the life of the saint.
