Hermitage of Santa María de La Piscina


The Hermitage of Santa María de La Piscina is a hermitage located in San Vicente de la Sonsierra, La Rioja, Spain.
The dedication of the 12th century building refers to the Pool of Bethesda. It was apparently founded to house relics from the Holy Land, notably a supposed fragment of the True Cross.
An important example of Romanesque architecture, it was declared a protected monument in 1931, the current designation being Bien de Interés Cultural.
There are burial sites of interest in the vicinity of the church.
