Church featuring a fine neoclassical colonial altarpiece and a gilded pulpit covered with mirrors

Built around 1730, this picturesque church in the Flower Market Square is one of the oldest in the city. The building is in Renaissance style, and its façade is adorned with an elegant ashlar entrance on which one can observe interesting sculptures in Baroque style (such as the salomonic columns that frame the port). Inside, there is a beautiful colonial altarpiece in neoclassical style, as well as a pulpit gilded with fine gold and covered with mirrors.

magnifique et typique
De toute façon vous y passerez devant cette église en vous promenant dans Cuenca avec sur son parvis le marché aux fleurs de la ville, l'église est de style colonial, de toute beauté et sa blancheur et architecture vous séduira. L'intérieur est à découvrir aussi à visiter hors messes pour y faire de belles photos.
