Hermitage of Saint Bartholomew

Highlight • Religious Site

Located in a unique setting, isolated at the mouth of the Lobos River Canyon, this beautiful construction was part of a Templar monastery, San Juan de Otero, of which only the chapel remains. The architectural symbols inscribed on its walls have been the source of numerous debates, attributing some to them of esoteric origin.
