Santuario de Nuestra Señora de África

The striking yellow 17th-century baroque-style church in Plaza de África remains active among Ceuta's Roman Catholic faithful. The altar has a powerful painting of the Lady of Africa with Jesus Christ lying dead in her arms. Feel free to walk around in silence as long as there's no service going on.
