Frómista

Frómista, (Palencia - Castilla y León) Spain

This 11th century church, San Martín de Tours, found in Frómista along the Camino de Santiago (Way of St. James), is a wonderful example of Spanish Romanesque architecture.  More than 300 decorative figures (with animal, human, mythological and fantastic figures including some erotic scenes) run along the eaves of the church.

It is said that the province of Palencia in Castilla y León has the greatest concentration of Romanesque churches and shrines in Europe.  If you enjoy seeing this style of architecture (as I do), you really do have an endless number of possibilities of things to discover in this area!
