Igrexa de San Martiño de Noia, Gothic church in Noia, Spain.

The Igrexa de San Martiño is a Gothic church consecrated in 1434, with a single nave and a polygonal apse. Its main portal imitates the Pórtico de la Gloria of Santiago de Compostela Cathedral, and the coat of arms of Archbishop Lope de Mendoza is displayed on the tympanum. It stands on the Praza do Tapal, facing the site of the former fortress of the same name and the Pazo dos Churruchaos.

The church was consecrated in 1434 and built on the initiative of Lope de Mendoza, archbishop of Santiago de Compostela, whose coat of arms is displayed on the tympanum of the entrance. It stands on Praza do Tapal, opposite the site of the vanished fortress of the same name and the Pazo dos Churruchaos.

The church continues to serve the local community through regular gatherings and draws pilgrims walking the route to Santiago de Compostela. Visitors notice how religious practice and daily community life intertwine within this sacred space.

The church sits in the central plaza of Noia, within easy walking distance of the town center and other historic sites. Visitors can access it easily on foot and use it as an orientation point while exploring the town.

The main entrance features detailed stone carving that mirrors the style of Santiago de Compostela's famous cathedral, yet was created on a more modest scale. Visitors often overlook this detail, though it reveals the artistic connections between this town and the pilgrimage destination.
