Collegiate Church of San Antolín, Medina del Campo

The Collegiate Church of San Antolín features a grand bell tower, a substantial lintel door, and the Balcony of the Virgen del Pópulo on its exterior.

Juan Gil de Hontanon, who also worked on the Cathedral of Sevilla, constructed this religious edifice during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries.

The open chapel design of the Virgen del Pópulo balcony influenced the architectural patterns of numerous cathedrals constructed throughout Latin America.

Located at Plaza Mayor de la Hispanidad, the church maintains regular visiting hours and offers tower access for panoramic views of the surrounding area.

Merchants in medieval Medina del Campo had to wait for the completion of high mass at this church before conducting their wool trading activities.
