Church of San Millán

Church of San Millán is a Romanesque building with three naves and three apses throughout its layout. It also preserves a small chapel in the north gallery area, distinguished by notable columns and horseshoe-shaped arches.

This building was constructed during the 12th century in Segovia's former Moorish quarter. Mozarab craftsmen settled in this area and shaped how the neighborhood developed architecturally.

The interior shows Mudejar craftsmanship, blending Islamic and Christian design elements throughout the space. This mix appears in the arches and decorative details, reflecting how different communities lived and built together in medieval times.

The church sits on Avenida Fernández Ladreda near other historical monuments in the Old Town area. It is easily accessible on foot from the Aqueduct and nearby significant sites.

The floor plan design mirrors the layout of the Cathedral of Jaca. Inside, it holds a Gothic crucifix from the 14th century that remains intact to this day.
