Camino Photo of the Day: Santa María del Manzano
As we approach Castrojeriz, the Camino passes in front of the famous Iglesia de Santa María del Manzano. The earliest records of this church are in the tenth century, but it was already an old and powerful establishment by that time. The current building dates 1214. You can also get a pretty good idea of how steep the hill of Castrojeriz is, and why you might want to build a castle there.
