Santuario de San Pedro de Alcántara
05400 Arenas de San Pedro, Ávila, Spain
Santuario de San Pedro de Alcántara is a shrine located in Arenas de San Pedro.
Church, museum, and royal chapel. Austere from the outside, but with a richly ornamented interior featuring marble of various colors and abundant bronze. It contains works by Goya, Bayeu, Ventura Rodríguez, and others. It also houses an important collection of sacred art.
A very small 16th-century sanctuary, quite tiny with a small chapel. Being a sanctuary, I expected something larger and with a larger following. The building is charming, though, and of great importance in Arenas de San Pedro. The walk to the sanctuary is very pleasant and busy.
The access road is well paved, although you should be very careful as it is a walking area and there can be a lot of people walking on the road. Ample parking. The church is free to enter.
