Iglesia Virgen de las Angustias - Priego de Córdoba - Andalusia

This church was built in 1773 by Josefa del Mármol in Rococo style with the intention of building a temple in the image of Our Lady of Sorrows.

The church has a single nave with cross vaulting and lunettes and a dome near the choir resting on a cornice. The facade is in colored marble, with two parts, also in Santaella.

The temple and the altarpieces are attributed to Juan de Dios Santaella. In the chapel , the most important sculptural group is from the Granada School of the late 18th century, with the Christ of the Circle by José de Mora. On the bench are two beautiful figures of the Virgin Mary and Saint Joseph holding the Child, works by José Risueño from the 18th century.
