Iglesia de Santiago Apóstol, 16th-century Catholic church in central Almeria, Spain
The church features a single nave layout with Gothic-Mudejar architectural elements, stone pillars, arches, and a vaulted ceiling spanning its interior space.
Founded by the Catholic Kings in 1494 after Almeria's recapture from the Moors, the construction took place between 1553 and 1559 under Bishop Villalan's direction.
The side entrance displays a relief of Santiago Matamoros, depicting Saint James as a soldier on horseback, representing the Christian reconquest period.
The church welcomes visitors from Monday to Friday during scheduled hours in the morning between 9:30-12:00 and evening between 18:00-19:00.
Located near the Almedina district and Puerta Purchena, this church stands at what was once the main entrance to Almeria before the city walls removal.
