Church of San Vicente

The Iglesia de San Vicente is a medieval church located in Toledo, it appears as a parish already in 1125, although, there is documentation that speaks of its being founded by Alfonso VI shortly after his conquest of the city in 1085.

The current building is the result of successive reconstructions, transformations and additions. The oldest element preserved is the mudejar apse. Judging by its structure, the apse does not appear to be earlier than the 13th century. It follows a type very similar to that of another church in Toledo, Cristo de la Vega, in which the exterior stands out, and the straight section, which precedes the apse proper. Another feature consistent with that date is the use of friezes in the corner, separating horizontally the bodies of arches, and the same typology of arches, which repeats the folded half-points and the horseshoe pointed, covered by lobed, appearing in the Cristo de la Vega.
