Church of San Juan de Letrán, Valladolid, Baroque Catholic church in Valladolid, Spain.

The church features a dynamic main facade with pronounced curves, decorated with pebbles, plant motifs, and sculptures representing Faith and Charity.

Initially founded in 1550 as an asylum for thirteen poor people, the building transformed into a temple under the royal patronage of Carlos I.

The interior decoration includes detailed plasterwork from the 1730s, displaying the architectural patterns and religious symbolism of Spanish Baroque design.

The church operates as a diocesan neocatechumenal center following extensive restoration work completed between 2011 and 2014.

Municipal Architect Matías Machuca designed the distinctive convex-concave facade, incorporating bulbous columns and the royal shield of Spain.
