Church of Ntra. Sra. de la Peña

The church of Nuestra Señora de la Peña (12th century), architecturally, is very similar to that of El Salvador, but with various later additions such as the Sacristy or the Camarín de la Virgen. It has a single nave of great height, covered with stone barrel vault and semicircular apse, hidden by the main altarpiece. Mainly it emphasizes its cover in whose tympanum the Final Judgment is represented, in whose central part the Pantocrator stands out framed in a singular rhombus surrounded by the four evangelists. In the interior there is a baroque altarpiece from the 18th century in which you can see a polychrome wood carving in the central street, representing the patron saint of Sepulveda and its Community of Villa y Tierra, the Virgen de la Peña.
