The Iglesia de San Pedro y San Pablo in Quesada has a rich history dating back to the 14th century. The church was built on the site of an old Visigothic church that was later converted into a mosque under the Moors. After the definitive reconquest of Quesada by the Christians on 29 June 1310, the church was given its current name in honour of the apostles San Pedro and San Pablo. The church is built in the neoclassical style and has a plan in the form of a Latin cross. The interior consists of three naves, of which the central nave is higher. The cross arch of the transept is an oval dome, and there is a high choir at the bottom. The church also has a tower with four sections, of which the first two are made of masonry and the last two of tombstones. Interior: The interior of the church is richly decorated with baroque elements and neoclassical details. The wooden cross arches and the famous wall decorations are beautifully preserved. Exterior: The exterior of the church is less striking, but the 18th century bronze-hinged entrance gate is a highlight.
