ROMANESQUE COLLEGIATE DE SAN MARTÍN DE ELINES
San Martin de Elines is one of the four collegiate Romance is in the province. And in the region of Valderredible is by far the most monumental and spectacular. Although the date of construction is part of the Roman city (XI - XII century) has a history Mozarabic or Visigoths. Thus, some of the primitive horseshoe arches can still be seen in the cemetery and in the cloister, since for this building (XVI century) materials were reused much earlier. It is very striking the outer appearance, both the bell tower of circular section (although not the only one in the region) as the sequence of corbels in the apse, which gives a very aesthetic and balanced. San Martin de Elines is in the CA-275. in the section between Poliente, capital of the municipality of Valderredible and Hiking (Burgos). The collegiate is easily distinguishable from that road. To visit the cloister inside the temple and must contact the person who, in a nearby house, hold the keys, or with the pastor on phone +34 942 776 079.
