Church of Virgen de los Remedios in Estepona
In San Francisco square, in the town centre, the Church of Virgen de los Remedios stands out. Its huge, four-level tower –one of whose sections features two-colour tile ends– can be seen from every point in town. Built in the eighteenth century, the church used to be part of a Franciscan convent that was dismantled, among many other religious buildings in Spain, after the 1835 confiscation. |
