Camino Photo of the Day: Capilla de San Roque (Interior)

The Capilla de San Roque is a tiny little church on a busy street in the most urban part of Melide. It was built in 1949 using portions of the demolished churches of Saint Roque and Saint Peter. The sanctuary is crowded with statues, presumably from the two older churches, but they are arranged in an uninspired, workmanlike manner. In fact, the entire sanctuary is drab and neglected. Compare and contrast with that of the Iglesia de San Juan in nearby Furelos
