THE CHURCH OF THE SPIRIT
OF SANTO
Location:
Inside the walls surrounding the Almocabar
Arch in The suburb of San Francisco.
Constructed
by order of Fernando the Catholic, the church
was completed in 1505 - a year that also
saw the death of Queen Isabel. The church
consists of a 30 metre long and 9 metre
wide nave, at the end of which lie a large
pulpit and a Baroque-style altar with stone
carvings of three coats of arms. The style
of the church is serious and austere, characteristics
that denote the fact that it was constructed
during times of war.
Opening
hours:
Saturday to Sunday from 10:00 to 18:30
