In the heart of Valoria la Buena, a 13th-century secret is hidden within this stunning 18th-century neoclassical church.

San Pedro Apostol Church, hidden in the labyrinthine streets of Valoria la Buena, boasts an 18th-century neoclassical design. Built by architects Fernando and Manuel Gutiérrez, the church was designed by the Asignatura de Arquitectura de la Academia de San Carlos. The church showcases a central plan with a dome and an exterior bellfry, with the Epistle side housing the entrance door, arched and topped by a rectangular pediment. At its foot, the tower reveals some remains of a 13th-century construction.
