Church of Santo Domingo

Iglesia de Santo Domingo

A red-brick church in the north of the old town with twin bell towers; its interior holds a series of paintings of the Mysteries of the Rosary and a richly decorated altar.

Iglesia de Santo Domingo was built in the early 20th century. Its Spanish-style twin-tower façade stands out on the old town skyline, and inside there are fifteen paintings of the Mysteries of the Rosary along with stained glass. The small square in front is where locals feed pigeons. Entry is free, but please do not walk around or take photos during Mass. It can be visited together with the nearby San Sebastián Church and the Municipal Museum of Modern Art.
