Most
Romanesque buildings in Besaya and Campóo are one-nave
churches originally covered with wood. As years went by,
these were being built with groin vaults as is the case
of the church of Retortillo. It is worth remarking the
capitals of its pointed triumphal arches inside,
representing scenes of tournaments. |
