Visiting San Andres

Visitando a San Andrés

En el bonito pueblo de Cuenya, se encuentra la iglesia parroquial de San Andrés. Fue construida en 1896 y el templo es de planta alargada y una sola nave con cabecera poligonal, cubierta por cuatro bóvedas de estrellas apoyadas sobre pilastras nervadas. En el exterior tiene añadidos como el pórtico de tejas y la sacristía. Su fachada principal es de arco y dos ventanas apuntados. La iglesia está realizada en ladrillo, los encuadres de los vanos están hechos de arenisca y ricamente tallados. El interior está restaurado tras en incendio que sufrió durante la Guerra Civil. Junto con la capilla del cementerio, que es el presbiterio de la primitiva iglesia del siglo XIII, derribada para construir la actual, son dos edificios de obligada visita cuando os encontréis por la zona. Seguro que no os arrepentís.
In the pretty village of Cuenya, is the parish church of San Andrés. It was built in 1896 and the temple has an elongated shape and a single nave with polygonal head, covered by four star vaults supported on ribbed pilasters. Outside is added as the tiled porch and sacristy. Its main facade is pointed arch and two windows. The church is made of brick, the frames of the windows are made of sandstone and richly carved. The interior is restored on fire after he suffered during the Civil War. Along with the cemetery chapel, which is the primitive presbytery of the XIII century church, torn down to build the present, are two buildings must visit when you meet in the area. Sure you do not repent.
