Iglesia de San Pedro (Paterna)

The San Pedro church is the parish church of the historic core of Paterna. It is a 14th-century church remodelled in the 18th century, next to the tower and the museum.

History

The 14th-century parish grew with the pottery town and was remodelled in the 18th century with chapels and decoration of the period. Its fabric tells the continuity of worship in the old quarter.

What to see

The nave and the 18th-century chapels inside the medieval fabric. Pair it with the Paterna tower and the ceramics museum, with the medieval ware.

The church closes the old-quarter triangle with the tower and the museum: the square in front links all three in a short walk.

Tips for your visit

• Check parish hours before going.
• Walk the old quarter and the cave quarter on foot.
• Respect worship if the church is open.
