Collegiate of Gandia, Gothic church building in Gandia, Spain

The central nave of the church features high stone vaults supported by pillars, with lateral chapels extending along both sides of the structure.

The construction of this religious edifice began in the 14th century on the site of a former mosque and received collegiate status from Pope Alexander VI in 1499.

The church contains the Santa Maria door and the Apostles door, both displaying intricate stone carvings that represent religious figures and biblical scenes.

The church maintains regular visiting hours from Monday to Saturday, with guided tours explaining the architectural elements and religious artifacts of the building.

The exterior walls incorporate multiple gargoyles, extending from the upper sections, which serve both decorative purposes and function as water drainage systems.
