This early pre-Romanesque masterpiece was constructed during the reign of Alfonso II (791–842 CE). Beyond its portico and graceful pair of porches, you'll discover a strikingly spacious interior decorated with beautifully preserved frescos in geometric and floral motifs. Visits are guided, in Spanish, with the last one starting half an hour before each closing time.
