CHURCH OF SAN LORENZO DE PIÑOR

CHURCH OF SAN LORENZO DE PIÑOR

A 16th century church, representative of Galician religious architecture. Its façade with pilasters, baroque staircase and sober belfry stand out.
Dating from the 16th century This building is typical of popular Galician religious architecture. The most outstanding feature is its façade, flanked at the corners by two pilasters that support a pediment divided by a niche with the image of San Lorenzo. Access to the church is via a large Baroque-style staircase and the entrance door is crowned by a Renaissance-style cushion. The verticality of the bell tower crowned with a balustrade stands out. The lack of decoration on the walls of the building is the dominant feature.
