Lock No. 7 of the Campos branch of the Canal de Castilla, located in Tamariz de Campos. Like all the canal's locks, its purpose was to allow barges to overcome uneven terrain, facilitating the transport of goods, especially grain and flour.

The Church of Santa Cruz, which today houses the Museum of the Holy Week of Medina de Rioseco. Above a previous Gothic church, it was built at the end of the 16th century, designed by Rodrigo Gil de Hontañón, highlighting the Italian Jesuitic style façade with Herrerian influences. At the doors of the church we find a monument to Holy Week.

The local congregation has dedicated this church not to one of the (almost infinite) saints, but to "Santa Cruz" as its patron saint. Perhaps a brief stop for hikers or walkers is the appropriate time for a brief meditation and a prayer to God. I would therefore like to invite you to prayerfully contemplate God's infinite love for us humans, revealed in Christ nailed to the wood of the cross. Perhaps a quote from the Spanish order's founder, Ignatius of Loyola (1491 to 1556), may be helpful: + "Trust in God is most exalted precisely where human hopes sink most deeply. For where all human help gives way, there it makes way for divine help."
