Lock No. 7 and the flour mill in Medina de Rioseco are part of the valuable industrial and hydraulic heritage of the Canal de Castilla, one of the most important engineering works of the 18th century in Spain.

The Church of Santa Cruz, which today houses the Museum of the Holy Week of Medina de Rioseco. Above a previous Gothic church, it was built at the end of the 16th century, designed by Rodrigo Gil de Hontañón, highlighting the Italian Jesuitic style façade with Herrerian influences. At the doors of the church we find a monument to Holy Week.

The local congregation has dedicated this church not to one of the (almost infinite) saints, but to "Santa Cruz" as its patron saint. Perhaps a brief stop for hikers or walkers is the appropriate time for a brief meditation and a prayer to God. I would therefore like to invite you to prayerfully contemplate God's infinite love for us humans, revealed in Christ nailed to the wood of the cross. Perhaps a quote from the Spanish order's founder, Ignatius of Loyola (1491 to 1556), may be helpful: + "Trust in God is most exalted precisely where human hopes sink most deeply. For where all human help gives way, there it makes way for divine help."

Villafrechós is a town belonging to the Tierra de Campos region of Valladolid. It has a long history and in the town the Monastery of Santa Clara (founded at the beginning of the 15th century), the Church of San Cristóbal and the Hermitage of the Virgen del Cabo stand out. Its gastronomic jewel are the famous caramelized almonds, receiving important awards since the Universal Exhibition of Barcelona in 1888. As a curiosity, the paternal grandfather of Jeff Bezos, owner of Amazon, was born in the town.

Medina de Rioseco is known as the seat of the Admiralty of Castilla, the city has a rich history that goes back to the Vacceos, Celts, Romans. Located next to the sequillo river, I recommend you tour the town by bike and visit the Church of Santiago Apóstol.

Villabrágima is a small town in the Tierra de Campos region with origins in Roman times. Take a look at the Iglesia Parroquial de Santa María and cycle through the Puerta del Reloj de Villabrágima. A great photo opportunity.
