Church of San Jorge
(Ledantes) |
|
The Vega de
Liébana valley, crossed by Quiviesa river, is reached
taking the road from Potes towards the mountain pass of
San Glorio, which links Liébana with León. As in most
of Liébana, there are a few remains left of a popular
Romanesque in some of its churches, for example, the
Romanesque bell gable of the church of Vada, the remains
of another bell gable in Vega graveyard, an hermitage in
Enterrías from a period earlier than the Romanesque,
etc.. Finally, in religious architecture it is worth
remarking the church of San Jorge
in Ledantes, well-known especially for its mural
paintings. Lay architecture is popular and quite
homogeneous with many Baroque casonas with their
coats of arms in different villages such as Valmeo,
Barrio, La Vega, Dobres, etc..
