Rodeiro - Igrexa de San Vicente

22 Mar 2024 2 55
San Vicente is the parish of the municipality of Rodeiro. The first documentary mention of Rodeiro dates back to 1368, the church may .be a century older. The floor plan consists of a single rectangular nave and an apse connected by a triumphal arch. The walls are made of granite blocks laid in stone in regular rows. The upper part of the west façade was altered in modern times when the bell tower was rebuilt and replaced by a baroque tower. There are some interesting corbels under the roof.

Miñón de Santibáñez - San Pedro

03 Sep 2023 68
Today Miñón de Santibáñez has less than 20 inhabitants. There must have been a larger population when St. Pedro was erected in the 11th century. The portal of San Pedro is very interesting. On the outer archivolt sits a kind of medieval orchestra. The musicians could be related to the "Elders of the Apocalypse", but they lack the usual attributes (perfume bottles, crowns...).
