A church, dedicated to Saint Martin of Tour, was consecrated in 1156, the village is known already since the 11th century for supplying wine to the monastery in Leyre. The church is on the highest spot of the little village and the lanes going up there are really narrow. When I finally reached the church I knew, that it was to late to see the crypt. Actually I could not even enter the church but only walk around it - and take some pictures. This is one of the capitals flanking the door. It is rather weathered, but it can still be seen, that there is Samson, tearing the lion apart.

One of the capitals flanking the door depicts Saint Martin of Tour on man on horseback, He has cut his cloak in two and is handing one half of it to a beggar, who is barfoot and wears only a kind of rag.
