The Romanesque Iglesia de Santo Tomé el Viejo in Ávila

The Iglesia de Santo Tomé el Viejo is a Catholic temple located in the city of Ávila, in Castilla y León. The building is situated extramuros in the city, situated in front of the wall exiting through the Arco del Peso de la Harina or de la Catedral.

The structure existed before 1150 and was remodeled at the end of the 12th century in the Romanesque style. It was declared aBIC as a monument on August 8, 1991, by a decree signed by the president of the Junta de Castilla y León and the Counselor of Culture and Tourism.

Following the desamortización of 1835, the building was converted into a workshop and service station. In 1960, it reverted to the Spanish state, which linked it to the provincial museum, of which it is now a visitable storage area.
