The plaza de España of Villaviciosa de Córdoba, the Paseo, is dominated by the parroquia de San José, a neo-classical temple that was completed in 1824.
The parish church is the village’s main monument, and its grandeur bears mention, presenting a large central nave with niches on the side walls.
The apse and section nearest the door are narrower than the nave, giving rise to an interesting symmetrical composition.
Attention should also be drawn to the neo-classical severity and style of the tower.
