"There remains to be added," writes Sigfried Grän OFM in 'Noah, the Builder of the Ark and Inventor of Viticulture,' "what we omitted above in our summary of the Noah story. Noah not only survives the Flood and, after his rescue, offers a burnt offering to the Creator. He also incidentally becomes the inventor of viticulture. (...) In ancient Israel, the vine was considered the noblest of all plants. To own a vineyard, to enjoy its fruits, and to rest in the peace of its shade was... the epitome of a happy and blessed existence." (Source: "In the Land of the Lord.

The Great Black Bull: The story of Spain's most iconic billboards dates back to the founding of a Cadiz brandy and sherry winery by an Englishman named Osborne. The bulls originally stood up to 4 meters tall and bore the Osborne name in red letters. The herd grew to 500 before anti-billboard legislation threatened their existence. Following a public outcry, they were removed from the street, the lettering removed, and rebuilt to a height of 14 meters.

The reservoir was built over a century ago from a small natural lake to provide irrigation water for agricultural land.

The church was built in the 15th century and remodeled and completely decorated in the Baroque period. The tower façade was completed during this period. The main altar, which dates back to the first third of the 18th century, is noteworthy. There is an important collection of paintings hanging on the walls of the church and in the sacristy. Among them, the depiction of Saint Catherine of Alexandria, which is located in the presbytery, stands out.

The external façade and portals are less rich, but no expense was spared inside to illustrate the glorification. The high altar is huge, and a painting by Buanarotti hangs in the back of the cathedral.

The oldest church in Logrono with a very delicately designed entrance portal. The interior is rather simple and made of raw stone, but for once it looks all the more beautiful and therefore soothing.
