The Church of San Lorenzo in Sahagún, Spain, begun in 1110, is a striking example of Mudéjar architecture executed in brick—a distinctive regional approach that blends Islamic and Christian architectural traditions. The structure also incorporates Gothic and Romanesque elements, reflecting the layered building campaigns and stylistic evolution of medieval Iberian religious architecture. Designated as a bien de interés cultural and part of the Sahagún UNESCO World Heritage Site, the church remains a significant monument to the artistic exchange of the medieval period, though it currently appears on the Red List of Endangered Heritage, indicating conservation challenges.
