Church of San Pedro Apóstol

Monument · Palomar el, La Vall d'Albaida, Valencia

Parish church of El Palomar (La Vall d'Albaida, Valencia), built in the 17th century on an earlier medieval temple, although its present appearance, in Baroque style, is the result of an 18th-century renovation. It preserves several chapels dedicated to Saint Peter, the Virgen de los Dolores, the Holy Sepulchre and the Virgen del Carmen, as well as a high altarpiece of Baroque inspiration dedicated to Saint Peter the Apostle, with paintings arranged in a circle around a central sculpture. Beside the church stands a bell tower with three bells: the Marianna, that of the Holy Family and that of Saint Peter. The parish also holds a small museum of sculpture, goldwork and religious painting.
