La Iglesia de Nuestra Señora de las Angustias

Edit This

The Virgen de las Angustias (the Virgen Maria, but the particular aspect of her that refers to her anguish upon the death of her son) is the much beloved patron saint of Granada.  This church, dedicated to her, does not look very exciting from the outside, but peek inside for probably one of them most beautiful cathedrals that you will ever see!  If you are in Granada in September, make sure to participate in the Ofrenda Floral (floral offering) for the Virgen, and in the parades and celebrations in her honor, on the last Sunday in September.  Mass is held in the church every Sunday at 12:00pm, but you can go inside to look around at pretty much any time.
