Iglesia de San Lázaro, 19th-century Catholic church in O Peliquín district, Ourense, Spain
The San Lázaro Church features a Latin cross layout, semicircular arches, and strong buttresses supporting its stone structure at its exterior walls.
The original chapel, dedicated to Saint Lazarus, stood in San Lázaro Park from 1119, serving as a leprosarium before its relocation to O Peliquín in 1952.
The church celebration occurs on the Sunday before Palm Sunday, with a procession from Santa Eufemia Church and traditional practices.
The church sits near a small square with a children's playground, making it a central point for neighborhood gatherings and religious services.
During its 1952 relocation, each stone was numbered for precise reconstruction, though the process extended over three decades due to financial constraints.
