Church of Saint Philip Neri, Baroque church in Gothic Quarter, Spain.

The Church of Saint Philip Neri features a single nave with side chapels, a semicircular apse, and a transept crowned by a domed roof.

The church facade bears marks from the 1938 bombing during the Spanish Civil War, when 42 people lost their lives in the air-raid shelter beneath.

The interior contains multiple Neoclassical and Baroque altars crafted by Ignasi Vergara, Salvador Gurri, and Ramón Amadeu, along with paintings by Joan Llimona.

The church stands next to a functioning school, and visitors can reach it via metro lines L3 and L4 at Liceu or Jaume I stations.

The building forms part of the Roman city wall in Barcelona and marks the entrance to the former Jewish Quarter.
