Iglesia del Hospitalet

In Sueca, the Hospitalet church is a 1743 Baroque single-nave church with a plastered and painted facade. It served the quarter around the old hospital.

History

The chapel grew with the hospital institutions of the 18th-century town. Its painted facade belongs to the Baroque taste for colour on street fronts.

What to see

The 1743 painted facade outside and the single-nave Baroque interior of the old Sueca hospital quarter. It sits close to the San Pedro parish and the Ateneo, so the three make one walk.

Tips for your visit

• It is a working church, so visit outside service times.
• Look at the plastered and painted facade details before entering the 1743 single nave.
