It was part of a Benedictine monastery and this Church is related to the Romanesque currents in Jaca, it was founded by Doña Mayor, Countess of Castile in 1066. It is the purest and most representative Romanesque building in the province of Palencia.

Saint Martin, to whom the church here in Fromista is dedicated, is – next to Saint Nicholas – probably one of the most popular saints of all. The memorial day of the former officer in the Roman army is on November 11th. On the night after the famous "dividing of the cloak", when he leaves half his army cloak to a freezing beggar, Jesus Christ appears to him in a dream. He then converted to Christianity and was later elected bishop of Tours (France), initially against his will.
