Santisima Trinidad Church Museum · Atienza (EN)

POI

Of Romanesque style, from the 12th century, only the apse is preserved from this period, of Segovian influence, of great beauty and elegance. In the 16th century the church was renovated. On the exterior it has two doors, one oriented to the noon and the other to the west, both in Renaissance style. In the interior, of a single nave, the ribbed vault and the main altarpiece stand out, where the carving of the Holy Trinity is located, decorated with interesting canvases by Matías de Torres. On both sides of the nave there are several chapels. They emphasize that of the Ortega family, of the XVII century; that of the Santas Espinas (old chapel of the Cabildo); and that of the Inmaculada Concepción, of rococo style. The church of the Holy Trinity houses the museum of La Caballada, a Festival of National Tourist Interest, which has been celebrated in Atienza every Pentecost Sunday since 1162; and a museum of sacred art, which highlights the carvings of the Christ of the Four Nails, Romanesque; and the Christ of Forgiveness, by Luis Salvador Carmona, of the eighteenth century, the most prestigious Spanish sculptor of the time.
