A very ancient sacred building at the end of Europe (southern end)

Andalucia Tour ~ Tarifa The Church of San Mateo Apostol in Tarifa is an architectural gem that you simply cannot miss if you are in the city. Located in the heart of the Old Town, its majestic Baroque façade is one of its biggest attractions. Built in the 18th century, it is striking for its decoration and stonework details, which contrast with the plainness of the rest of the church. The main doorway, framed by sturdy pillars and floral decorations, immediately catches the eye and reflects the exquisite craftsmanship of the time. Above it, a curved pediment and a window with lattice detail complete a structure that invites you to take a closer look. The balance between monumentality and detail makes this façade one of the most beautiful in the region. Although its interior is also worth admiring, its exterior’s artistic richness and historical features make it stand out. This is undoubtedly a major point of interest for lovers of Tarifa's architecture and history. #11月好去2024 #SpainTravel #Andalucia #ReligiousBuildings #Cathedral #Relax
