Church of El Carmen Extramuros, Valladolid
Church of El Carmen Extramuros, Valladolid, Baroque Catholic church in Valladolid, Spain.
The Church of El Carmen Extramuros is a baroque building with stone walls and brick sections, constructed in Valladolid. The interior is defined by an impressive main altarpiece that features a notable collection of sculptural works.
The building was founded by the Discalced Carmelites in 1581 and received its final construction in 1583. It remains today as the only preserved structure from the original convent at this location.
The central altarpiece displays a sculpture of the Virgin of Mount Carmel by Gregorio Fernández, complemented by works from other significant sculptors. These pieces shape the interior and reflect the artistic quality of the space.
The building is located in an easily accessible area of Valladolid and is open to visitors wishing to explore the baroque architecture and artworks inside. It is helpful to check opening times in advance, as these may vary depending on religious services.
The main facade features a carved arch with a central niche housing an image of the Virgin of Carmel. This sculptural work from the early 17th century is a rare example of this specific iconographic representation on a church exterior.
