Hermitage of La Monjía, Romanesque hermitage church in Fuentetoba, Spain
The hermitage stands on the southern slope of Pico Frentes, near the Golmayo river source, featuring three concentric entrance arches and pointed arches in the apse.
Originally established by Benedictine monks from Valvanera for livestock pastures, the property transferred to Diego Solier in 1507 and later to the Counts of Castejón.
The chapel preserves the venerated image of Nuestra Señora de Valvanera and represents an architectural combination of 11th-century Romanesque and Gothic elements.
The structure contains two levels: a ground floor for guards and grain storage, with an upper floor that served as accommodation for monks.
The fortified monastery complex, declared a Cultural Heritage Property, currently faces preservation challenges and requires immediate conservation interventions.
