Church of Saint Anthony of the Germans
Church of Saint Anthony of the Germans, Baroque Catholic church in central Madrid, Spain.
The church features an elliptical floor plan with frescoes covering the walls and dome, while its facade displays post-herrera architectural elements.
The structure was initially built in 1624 as San Antonio de los Portugueses church, serving Portuguese immigrants until Portugal gained independence from Spain in 1640.
The interior frescoes, painted by artists Juan Carreño de Miranda, Francisco Rizi, and Luca Giordano, represent the Spanish Baroque artistic movement.
The church opens Monday through Saturday from 10:00 to 17:00, offering guided tours with audio guides in multiple languages for 5 euros.
The crypt contains the remains of two infantas of Castile, transferred in 1869 from the demolished Santo Domingo el Real convent of Madrid.
