Continuing in the same direction we come to the beginning of Corredera street, the main street, where we find the most important shops and banks. At the beginning there is a small triangular square called La Plazuela, very near to which is the convent of Santa Ana founded in 1594.

From an artistic point of view the most important piece is the Church, which was finished in the late eighteenth century. It is a temple with a Latin cross and a single nave, with a smaller semidetached nave to its right. The entrance to the presbytery is semidetached by large paired columns from the Doric order, over which sit arches which frame the cupola.

The main altarpiece, work of Pedro Roldán, is one of the artistic jewels preserved in Montilla, finished in 1954. The decorative aspects, despite its classical spirit, have a great number of baroque elements. The columns that frame the main body are Corinthian with flute shafts and profuse decorative vegetation adorn its lower third.

The main panel is dominated by an image of the Immaculate Mary again by the hand of Pedro Roldán. There are also interesting images such as that by Gaspar Lorenzo de Cobos.

The altarpiece is completed with the high and low choirs. In the later there is a reminiscently gothic carving of Santa Ana. There are several baroque paintings and a Dolorosa by Duque Cornejo.
