Iglesia Mayor Prioral, Gothic basilica in El Puerto de Santa María, Spain.

The church features three entrances, including the Door of Forgiveness with its Gothic design and the southern Sun Portal with Plateresque sculptures.

Construction began in 1486 under architect Alonso Rodríguez, and the church opened for worship in 1493, though modifications continued through subsequent centuries.

The church holds the image of Virgen de los Milagros, the patron saint of El Puerto de Santa María, and conducts traditional Rorate Masses during Advent.

Located on Plaza España opposite the Municipal Museum, the church provides religious services and accepts donations through the BIZUM payment application.

The interior contains a silver altarpiece crafted by Jose Medina in 1682 and utilizes sandstone from Sierra de San Cristóbal, the same material used in Seville Cathedral.
