Iglesia Virgen de las Angustias, Catholic church in Centro district, Granada, Spain

The Iglesia Virgen de las Angustias exhibits Baroque architecture with detailed ornamentation, stone masonry, and prominent bell towers reaching toward the sky.

The church structure, completed in 1671, replaced a sixteenth-century hermitage where the Brotherhood originated in 1545 under Archbishop Pedro de Castro's direction.

The church maintains the statue of Granada's patron saint, Nuestra Señora de las Angustias, which depicts the Virgin Mary holding Christ after crucifixion.

Mass services occur three times daily from Monday through Saturday at 8:00, 11:00, and 20:00, with additional services on Sundays at 12:00 and 13:00.

The parish office operates Tuesday through Friday between 11:30 and 13:00, providing administrative services and confessional arrangements for congregants.

Granada, between Moorish palaces, secret courtyards, and Andalusian art

Grenada is a city experienced like a poem. At the foot of the Sierra Nevada, it combines Muslim heritage, Catholic fervor, and Andalusian rhythm. Behind ochre facades lie shaded patios, fountains, mosaics, and carved arches that tell eight centuries of history. The Alhambra watches over the city like a stone dream, the Albaicín district unfolds its white alleys, and the gardens of Generalife recall the delicacy of Nasrid rulers. At every turn, a bell tower follows a minaret, an Arab market opens onto a baroque cathedral. Granada is as much an open-air museum as a living place, where flamenco still escapes from the Sacromonte caves. Between spirituality, art, and jasmine fragrance, the Andalusian city retains an elusive, almost mystical beauty.
