Church of the Saviour of Real

About

The former mother Church of Real (replaced in 1938) is a 14th-century building. The main façade reveals a period that was already announcing the arrival of the Gothic style: the portal has a slightly broken arch with no tympanum; the columns are slender and are topped by capitals whose sculpture is not so bulky or expressive. On the south façade there is still an arcosolium with a tomb, whose lid shows a carved sword. Inside, we can still see Romanesque consecration crosses inscribed in a circle.
