Iglesia de San Lorenzo, Baroque church in La Viña district, Cádiz, Spain.

The church displays a Latin cross layout with Doric pilasters and barrel vaults containing lunettes that allow natural light into the interior spaces.

Construction began in 1722 under architect Juan Agustín López Algarín and was completed in four years through the patronage of Bishop Lorenzo Armengual.

The main altarpiece, created by Francisco López in the 18th century, represents a notable example of Cádiz Baroque craftsmanship.

The church contains several side chapels with carved wooden decorations, including the Baptismal Chapel with its white marble baptismal font.

The octagonal tower rises at the intersection of two facades, featuring Doric columns and architectural elements from Andalusian traditions.
