Palencia information
Church of San Miguel
Opening hours:
From 09:30 to 13:30 and from 18:00 to 20:00. Cannot be visited during worship or on public holidays.
It has an open-work tower of the 13th century with a military
appearance. This tower is at the foot of a 11th century church
with three naves divided by pilasters with ogive vault roofs.
Under the tower there is the Gothic main front that has six archivolts.
The Gothic figures act in contrast to the Romanesque bas-relief.
Outstanding inside is the XIV century Christ in the Prebestry,
the altars from the 16th and 17th centuries (one of them with
a Flemish Piedad), and fragment of Gothic mural painting.
