Soria
Soria is a small city with a population of less than 40,000, but it boasts picturesque scenery and is filled with historic buildings.
San Pedro Collegiate Church: Built in the late 12th century, only the magnificent cloister remains from that period. The exquisitely carved altar decorations, especially the Flemish-style Crucifixion scene, are worth admiring in detail.
Santo Domingo Church: The main façade of the church is considered one of the most harmonious examples of 12th-century architecture.
Count Gómara Palace: A representative work of Soria’s urban architecture.
Ermita de la Soledad: The chapel houses a Christ figure created by Juan de Juni.
San Juan de Duero Monastery: The decorative vaults of the cloister represent a perfect blend of Romanesque and Islamic art.
Ermita de San Saturnino: San Saturnino is the patron saint of Soria. This Baroque-style chapel was carved into the rock, giving it a romantic and primitive charm.
