The Neoclassical Architecture of Iglesia de San Pedro Apóstol

The Iglesia de San Pedro Apóstol is a Roman Catholic church in the town of Valoria la Buena, in the province of Valladolid. It stands as an important example of neoclassical architecture in the province, constructed by architects Fernando and Manuel Gutiérrez based on a plan by Manuel Godoy.

The building features a central plan that would have formed a perfect hexagon if not for the two straight sections at the head and foot. The central space is covered by a dome with plasterwork and an exterior cimborrio, while the straight sections are covered with barrel vaults.

At the side of the Epistle, the entrance door is topped with a straight pediment. At the foot of the temple stands a tower consisting of a base and two bodies, where remains of an older construction from the 13th century can be found. The church was officially cataloged as a Bien de Interés Cultural on October 28, 1993.
