Church of San Antonio Abad de Horcajo

Monument · Horcajo de los Montes, Montes de Ciudad Real, Ciudad Real

A 14th- and 15th-century church with Gothic elements and Mudéjar details in its portal, and the principal monument of Horcajo de los Montes. It has a single nave, with a gabled roof over slightly pointed arches, and a four-sided wooden ceiling in the apse, with beams resting on decorated corbels. Several chapels are attached to the walls, one of them containing the baptismal font, and semicircular buttresses can be seen on the exterior. The most valuable feature is the portal, of Arab lineage, with a multi-lobed arch inscribed within an alfiz below a very unusual double horseshoe arch.
