엘 캄필로 데 라 자라 최고의 러닝 경로

In this town of interesting popular rural architecture is the Church of Saint Bartholomew, known in the surrounding area as the "Sistine Chapel of Jara", the region in which it is located, due to the frescoes by Wladimir Strashko, which represent scenes from life. and martyrdom of Saint Bartholomew.

One of the characteristics of this town is its name which, as it indicates, shows us how the town is located next to a mountain pass, just like the pass itself.

The obligatory point during the visit in the town is the Church of San Bartolomé, from the 16th century, in late Gothic style, where we can see the frescoes, which represent scenes from the life and martyrdom of San Bartolomé.

I love the history of the name of this town. Apparently it was founded in part by beekeepers and the word "Mazo" comes from the contraption they used to scare away bears that came down from the nearby mountains to eat the honey. But it was not a mallet as you may be imagining, but rather a gigantic mallet that was moved by the river waters and produced a loud rhythmic noise that scared the greedy bears.

With more than 4500 years old, this dolmen, here in the middle of the meadow, is a magical place. It contains engravings depicting human beings.
