Church of la Virgen Grande, Torrelavega, Catholic church in central Torrelavega, Spain
The church features a circular facade and an elliptical floor plan covered by a star-shaped dome supported by brick ribs and reinforced concrete structure.
Construction of the current building took place between 1956 and 1962 on the site of a previous temple that was demolished in 1937.
The church holds the image of Virgen Grande, the patron saint of Torrelavega, represented in a 15th-century Gothic style statue.
The religious complex stands next to Plaza Baldomero Iglesias and includes exterior reliefs and sculptures created by artists Jesús Otero and Higinio Sainz.
The main entrance displays a hollow reinforced concrete bell gable containing a clock, bell tower, and a Sacred Heart sculpture above its wide arched doorway.
