Crypt of San Antolín, Cathedral of Palencia, Visigothic crypt in Palencia Cathedral, Spain.
The crypt features horseshoe arches, ancient columns, and stone capitals beneath the Cathedral of Palencia, extending through multiple underground chambers.
Dating from the 7th century, the crypt houses relics of Saint Antoninus of Pamiers, brought from Narbonne during King Wamba's reign.
Residents of Palencia gather in the crypt during Saint Antoninus feast day to collect water from an ancient well within its walls.
Visitors can access the crypt through the cathedral cloister, with admission tickets priced at 5 euros including entry to the museum.
The underground structure contains a water source that has flowed continuously since the 7th century, maintaining its original Visigothic architectural elements.
