Church of El Carmen, Herrerian church in Soria, Spain.
The Church of El Carmen features a plain facade with five arches forming a large portico and a central window illuminating the choir area.
Construction of the Church of El Carmen began in 1648 under Fray Alonso de San José and reached completion in 1670, replacing an earlier church declared ruined.
The interior contains eight altarpieces created between 1680 and 1700, including dedicated works to San Juan de la Cruz and Santa Teresa of the Child Jesus.
Religious services take place three times daily on weekdays, once on Saturdays, and five times throughout Sundays for community gatherings and prayer.
The church design follows strict architectural guidelines from the Order of Barefoot Carmelites, specifically avoiding Solomonic columns common in Baroque structures.
