Church of Royuela

Monument · Royuela, Sierra de Albarracín, Teruel

Church of San Bartolomé de Royuela, in the Sierra de Albarracín, with a three-nave plan and a fabric resulting from several building phases: it preserves simple ribbed vaults from the 16th and 17th centuries in sections of the central and side naves, joined by vaults and a dome decorated with Mannerist motifs, such as coffering and diamond points, and 18th-century barrel vaults in other areas and chapels. The tower, at the foot of the church, appears to be the original structure, with three square-plan bodies and openings only in the upper section. The church also preserves a 14th-century Pietà from the village's vanished Trinitarian convent, today in poor state of conservation.
