Iglesia de San Pedro Mártir

The Church of San Pedro Mártir is a Dominican place of worship in Valdefuentes featuring clean architectural lines and thoughtful use of natural light inside. The building is part of a larger complex that also includes a convent and theological school.

The building was completed in 1960 as part of a project to establish a theological center during the 1950s. The complex marked an important moment in post-war Spanish architecture.

The site serves the Dominican community as a place where religious practice and contemporary design meet. Visitors can observe how the spatial arrangement shapes daily study and prayer routines.

Visitors should know that the grounds also house an active seminary and access may be restricted at certain times. It helps to check ahead or plan your visit around times of religious services.

Architect Miguel Fisac created an innovative design in 1954 specifically tailored to the needs of a theological community. He even designed custom furniture pieces for the interior and carefully documented where each element should be placed.
