Iglesia de la Concepción, Roman Catholic church in Agaete, Canary Islands, Spain.

The church features three naves with a central dome, symmetrical facade, decorative pilasters, and a bell tower with four openings at Constitution Square.

The original temple foundation occurred between 1514 and 1515, while the current building dates from 1875 under architect Francisco de la Torre Sarmiento's direction.

The church maintains a collection of religious art, including a San Jose statue created in 1901 in Barcelona and a Dolorosa donated by the Armas family.

The building remains open for Catholic services without entrance fees, though donations for maintenance support receive appreciation from the parish administration.

The structure incorporates external buttresses at the rear section, designed specifically to distribute the roof weight across the building's foundation.
