The lucky find of two parochial visitors books dating from 1491 and 1495, in the church of Saint Mary of Araceli in Villagarcia de la Torre, a village in Extremadura (now belonging to the province of Badajoz), has given an insight into the situation of a modest country temple at the end of the Middle Ages.
This modest country village, under the jurisdiction of the Ponce de León, surrounded by the domain of the Order of St. James, was inhabited by a little over 200 people. It had a parish church which reflected the economic situation of the village: a poor temple serving a poor community. The diocesan authorities tried to improve the situation of the church which had not been visited for many years. Most of the episcopal recommendations were effective and many repairs were carried out in the church.
