Many famous craftsmen were responsible for building this church and it has been decorated inside with the work of many famous artists. The main chapel was designed by Diego López Bueno in the 18th century. The main altarpiece was designed by Martínez Montañes and contains sculptures by Felipe and Francisco Dionisio de Rivas. There are some of Francisco Pacheco's paintings in the tabernacle, but probably the most valuable artistic treasures are the mural painting of the "Virgen de Rocamador" and the alabaster sculpture of Our Lady of Carmen. The sacristy holds an excellent copy of Murillo's painting, "Charitas". The religious brotherhood called "Brotherhood of Our Father Jesus of the Great Power" were based here until 1965 when they moved to an adjacent church.
