Iglesia de la Concepción Real de Calatrava
4.5 (980)attraction
4.5 (980)A 17th-century sanctuary offering a surprisingly quiet retreat amid the city, anchored by a striking gilded baroque altar.
Description
Built in the late 17th century by the Augustinian monk and architect Fray Lorenzo de San Nicolás, this historic temple functions as a venue for weddings, spiritual exercises, and mass. Behind its neoclassical rose-pink facade lies an interior that feels amazingly peaceful inside despite its busy surroundings, featuring a partial Baroque refurbishment and an extremely large gilded altarpiece dominating the space.
