The Congregation of Secular Priests of San Pedro, together with the brotherhood of Tailors built the temple and hospital of the Holy Trinity. The temple is one of the most beautiful examples of the Styptic Baroque in the capital. The main façade, the lateral façade, the bell tower and the niche with the stampa have pilasters known as stípites, showing its era (1755-1783). The architect was Ildefonso de Iniesta Bejarano. The priests built the hospital so that secular priests of the archbishopric could convalesce with dignity. Of the rich interior, only a few sculptures and paintings remain. These are scattered throughout the enormous nave. The hospital façade is still standing in a characteristic NeoClassical style. Visitors can enjoy the view with the bell tower topped with the papal tiara.
