Some Account of Gothic Architecture in Spain

Note 108 — Chapter IV · SALAMANCA—ZAMORA—BENAVENTE.

Reading edition

I add Dr. Neale’s notes of two churches here which I did not discover.

“San Juan de la Puerta Nueva. Principally of Flamboyant date, has a square east end. The whole breadth of the church is here under one vault, the span somewhere about sixty feet. The north porch, separated by a parclose from the chapel of the Cross, has an excellent Transitional door. The western façade has a middle-pointed window of five lights.

“San Pedro. Has had its originally-distinct nave and aisles thrown into one in Flamboyant times, and vaulted with an immense span.”

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
