The most beautiful religious buildings Galice - Asturies - Cantabrie

Considered the last high example of Romanesque art in the west, it dates from the 13th century. The narthex (north doorway) was sculpted at that time on the model of the portico of Glory - enough to fill compostellan nostalgic style. The bright polychrome covering the apostles dates from the 17th and 18th centuries. The interior, marked by the Baroque architecture, has a beautiful Gothic retable. Also watch, behind the choir, amazing sculpted wooden crucifix, where a romanesque Christ is sacred, like a medieval king.

This Gothic church of the 13th century, with three naves, is built like a basilica, with a flight of steps flanked by two towers. You can see several interesting works here, including the White Virgin made of polychrome stone or reclining Christ, signed by Gregorio Fernandez. From the church square, you will have a beautiful view of the city. Next to the site, you can discover the ruins of the church of San Pedro romanesque style, built in the 12th century - only one arch.

The small road crosses a deep countryside, cut small stone walls, then arrive at the hamlet of Santa Eulalia, a real anthropological relic. Discovered in 1926 and declared a national monument artistic by 1931, this small romanesque building was probably built in the 4th century, but do not know that with a purposes. The church houses fine frescoes depicting of the fantastic birds surrounded by vegetation. A magical and enchanting.
