On the top of the hill stands the collegiate church, dating from 1534 and containing interesting Spanish and early German paintings. These, however, as well as the sculptures over the portal, suffered considerably during the occupation of the place by the French under Marshal Soult. The vaults, which are supported by Moorish arches, contain the tombs of the Girón family, and the church was founded by Don Juan Téllez.[2]
The university of Osuna, also founded by Don Juan Téllez in 1549, was suppressed in 1820.[2]
