The parish church of Santa Elena was built in the 16th century, although the main portal, the portico with its large carved scallop and the transparent alcove of the main chapel were redone around 1728.

This church is one of the treasures that you find in the "lost" towns of the Castilian plateau. Some parts of the Church of Santa Elena date from the 12th century and its most modern stones date back to 1700. Calzada de Valdunciel, the town where the church is located, receives its name from its proximity to a Roman road whose milestones are still posted on the outskirts.

Built between the 12th and 17th centuries, the Church of Santa Elena is the symbol of the town of Calzada de Valdunciel. A small and picturesque place that is worth visiting and that allows you to appreciate the beautiful interior of the Castilian plateau.
