Església de Sant Joan Baptista, Gothic church in Valls, Spain
The church of Sant Joan Baptista features a rectangular layout with a polygonal apse, fourteen side chapels, and a main nave spanning 63 meters long.
The construction of the current church structure began in 1569, replacing a 12th-century Romanesque church that previously occupied the same location.
The church contains sculptures by Lluís Bonifàs from the 18th century, including the Virgin of Sorrows with Christ and parts of the ancient altar of Sant Aleix.
The entrance to the bell tower, which stands at 74 meters high, is located through the Bells' Door facing Plaza dels Escolans.
The radial rose window, created in 1577 by German sculptor Jordi Virman, displays a central polylobulated oculus with concentric circles divided into 12 and 24 sections.
