This 17th-century monastery contains what is reputed to be a splinter from Christ's cross.
We loved this stop outside of Potes. We all speak Spanish, so we were able to enjoy the tour in Spanish by the Padre. It was fascinating to learn a bit of history of the monastery and the relics.

The hermitage, which only opens for mass and for the annual celebrations, is a very simple building that was constructed in the 17th century to house the statue of Nuestra Señora del Mar (Our Lady of the Sea), Santander's much-loved patron saint.
