Collegiate Church of Santa María de los Corporales

Monument · Daroca, Campo de Daroca, Zaragoza

A temple in Daroca originally built in Romanesque style in the 12th century and later enlarged in Gothic and Renaissance style, known for housing the eucharistic miracle of the Sagrados Corporales, an object of veneration since the Middle Ages. Pope Leo XIII granted it the dignity of basilica on 3 December 1890. The Romanesque apse, semicircular in plan, is decorated with three rose windows, while the main portal, in Gothic style, displays sculptures of saints and angels; the interior, already Renaissance, is completed with columns, capitals and frescoes. It also houses the Museo Parroquial, with a collection of sacred art, and is the setting for the Corpus Christi procession.
