Right at the beginning of Calle Major is the worth seeing Santiago Church, in which the saint is depicted as a pilgrim. In addition to the colonnade, only the portal, wonderfully decorated with sculptures, remains of the once Romanesque church.

The Church of Santiago in Puente la Reina, also known as the Church of Santiago el Mayor, is a historical and architectural gem. This parish church originally dates back to the 12th century, but most of what you see today dates back to the 16th century after extensive reconstruction.
One of its most striking features is the late Romanesque entrance, which was preserved during later renovations. Inside you will find a special statue, known as the Black Santiago.

This is the complete opposite of the Chapel of the Cross: here the theme is splendor and glorification. Almost too much gold, pomp...
