History and landmarks
Iglesia de Santa María
< 100 m from the trail as the crow flies
Church built over the tower of a monastery where the monks Magius and Emeterius copied and illuminated the Beato de Tábara, dated 970. The room at the base of the tower, entered through a Mozarabic horseshoe arch on columns, is what survives of that monastery.
Monasterio de Santa María de Moreruela
Monastery · 1.4 km from the trail as the crow flies
Ruined Cistercian abbey, perhaps the first Cistercian foundation in Spain, rebuilt by the monks in the twelfth century. Its Romanesque church, 63 m long, keeps the apse complete, with an ambulatory and seven chapels as at Clairvaux.
