hermitage where courts sessions could be / were held
Explanation:
There are ermitas and iglesias with this status: it means that trials could be held there. One of our local churches, the Basilica of San Vicente in Avila is one of these - hence my knowledge! (Think about swearing your oath on the bible, etc)

I suggest you leave the original Spanish and then explain, if this is possible.
