Restaurants in Province of Palencia
1. San Pedro Cultural
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 355 reviews
San Pedro Cultural: it is a Center related to Astronomy that went from being a ruined building from the 12th century, to being a multicultural Center where a series of different cultural shows are held, as well as exhibitions and talks. It is a perfect combination between history and science by mixing the existing ruin with a reform that respects the existing remains harmoniously combined with the new construction including a new cover with dark tones to get to hide the new and highlight the old. Related to astronomy we find a foucault pendulum, a meridian line, the cover of stars, among others.

We are overwhelmed by the beauty and history of San Pedro Cultural and the brilliant idea of creating museum dedicated to astronomy and astrology. We were absolutely mesmerised by friendly, informative, knowledgeable tour guide Carmen. We would highly recommend visiting this little treasure in Becerril de Campos, province Palencia.

This is a Visigothic church close to Palencia. It was built in the 7th century by the King Recensvinto. It is really small (like the rest of the Visigothic churches), with three naves and a beautiful votive candle. The church is built in stone and the columns in marble. I attended a tour guide of approximately 20 minutes. The entrance fee is 2 Euros.

I was on a short trip to Palencia ,a small historic town where I was surprised to discover a striking cathedral in Plaza de la Inmaculada .I visited the most important cathedrals of Spain in the past ,but I had no idea about the Unknown Beauty .I learnt that the ''old lady''is declared Historical -Artistic Monument .It was a great pleasure to travel back in the 14 th century .From the outside it seemed to me simple and austere ,but once inside I realised its beauty ,admiring the wonderful high altar with the story of Christ in dozens of panels ,as well as other religious elements .I particularly enjoyed the wonderful big flamand tapestries ,they are really spectacular . Unfortunately I didn't have enough time for a serious study .

You need to pay a small admission charge to get in but well worth it. This church is in pristine condition and the stone work and carvings are very unique and interesting. Tour groups come and visit but best seen after they leave to enjoy the church in quiet. Probably can see it in 15-30 minutes unless you want to linger more.
