Church of San Juan in Nava del Rey (Valladolid): Built between the 16th and 18th centuries, it incorporates the work of several architects: Juan Campero (apse and side chapels, early 16th century) and Rodrigo Gil de Hontañón (from 1560). After the tower collapsed in 1663, destroying the rear section, choir, and organ, it was rebuilt, and Juan de Revilla completed the new tower in 1702.

The Church of San Miguel in Peñaranda de Bracamonte is a beautiful classicist-style temple, built in quarry stone. Although its interior was severely damaged in 1971, its imposing exterior façade remains a testament to its history. After the fire of 1971, only the main altar chapel was saved, where the main altarpiece was located, a baroque masterpiece made by Sebastián Ducete and Esteban de Rueda. The chapel of San Antonio is also preserved, and in it you can see the Cristo de la Cama, an object of great local devotion. The stone baptismal font is original and was remodeled under the direction of Fernando Pulín, who received the National Restoration Award for his work. If you ever visit Peñaranda de Bracamonte, be sure to admire this architectural gem. 🌟🏰

The city of Madrigal de las Altas Torres has an oval shape, like many of the cities that were built in medieval times and where this shape gave them protection. The walls were another key element at the time of defending themselves, and at this point, they are still there.

The patronage of this place of worship “Santa Maria Asunción” or “Nuestra Señora de La Asunción” (in German-speaking countries it is called “Assumption of Mary”) refers to one of the many memorial or feast days in honor of the Blessed Mother Mary in the church year. It goes back to the festival of her physical assumption into heaven, which the (Catholic) Church celebrates annually on August 15th. In the Orthodox churches the festival is celebrated under the name “Assumption of the Virgin Mary”. In rural areas, depending on the region, it is part of the local custom that bundles of herbs are collected by the population on this day and blessed in the festival service.

This church was dedicated to the Archangel Michael "San MIGUEL". The name (coming from the Hebrew language) means "Who is like God?". He is often depicted - in paintings or as a statue - with a flaming sword, and occasionally a lance. Michael / Miguel is - along with Raphael, Gabriel and Uriel - one of the four archangels who (according to human understanding) occupy the highest rank in the heavenly hierarchy of angelic beings. Their common feast day in the saints' calendar is September 29th.
