Throughout its existence, the Brotherhood has gone through different periods of boom and decline, going completely bankrupt on four occasions, circumstances in which the titular images were moved to the nearby collegiate church of Santa María de las Nieves.
The chapel is still the headquarters of the Brotherhood of the Santa Vera-Cruz, and has an important artistic heritage inside, a magnificent main altarpiece made of gilded and polychrome wood, which is a reconstruction made with parts of two altarpieces from the extinct Franciscan convent founded by the Count-Duke of Olivares, Gaspar de Guzmán, in Castilleja de la Cuesta. The bench, the exterior columns and the lateral reliefs of saints are in Renaissance style, while the interior Solomonic columns and the magnificent attic with a carving based on acanthus leaves and an interior with pairs of embracing angels are in Baroque style. This original altarpiece is presided over by the titular images of the brotherhood, the Most Holy Christ of Health, Our Lady of the Ancient and Saint John the Evangelist.
When the brotherhood restored the façade of the chapel in 1978, the Governing Board decided to place two Triana ceramic tiles on either side of the door with images of its holders made by Antonio Morilla Galea (1910-2000)
