The Iglesia Parroquial de San Vicente Ferrer, Parish Church of San Vicente Ferrer in San Vicente del Raspeig, Alicante, was built on the site of an old chapel, dedicated to the town's patron saint, San Vicente Ferrer, who visited the hamlet of Raspeig in the 15th century.

The current building, completed in 1803, is in the neoclassical style and has a Latin cross plan, a single nave and side chapels between buttresses.

Its transept, roofed by a dome and lantern, supported on a drum, along with the communion chapel with its semi-spherical dome, are particularly noteworthy. The main façade is flat, boasting a single-storey portico, attic and smooth columns.

The bell tower of this church in San Vicente del Raspeig is a replica of the original, which was destroyed in the 20th century. The communal cistern, recently restored, is preserved in the basement. Located in the Plaza de España, it is the civic centre of the municipality, next to the Town Hall and the Casino. This is an architectural and historical gem that is not to be missed!
