San Juan de Ávila, Alcalá de Henares
The Church of Saint John of Ávila is a Roman Catholic parish church located in a modern neighbourhood of Alcalá de Henares, Spain.
The current temple was built in brickwork by Uruguayan engineer-architect Eladio Dieste; the dimensions of walls and roofs are very slim, thanks to reinforced ceramics.
It is dedicated to saint John of Ávila.
It is interesting to point out that, originally, this church was going to be built in Uruguay ; as the economic situation made this impossible, only the apse was built.
