Hermitage of Santa Cecilia
The image that this hermitage gives us, which is perched on a narrow rock, has become it one of the most famous monuments of the Romanesque north. It is on the outskirts of Vallespinoso, at the edge of an old path, and to control it, a tower whose remains can still be seen next to the headboard of the Hermitage, should be built before
Its construction is a perfect work of ashlar. The defensive role of this Chapel had is verified by the existence of semi-remote drains, with a elevated access in the interior, and for being preceded by a closed atrium, all of them from the same Romanesque period of the end of the XII century
