Iglesia del Santo Sepulcro, Romanesque church along the French Way in Torres del Río, Spain

The church features an octagonal structure with a central dome supported by eight intersecting arches forming an intricate star pattern in the ceiling.

Built around 1170, this religious structure replaced traditional circular layouts of similar basilicas and incorporated both Christian and Islamic architectural elements.

The interior dome displays ribbed vaulting with Arabic influences, reflecting the collaboration between Christian builders and Mudejar craftsmen during its construction.

Visitors can locate the church along the N-111 road connecting Estella to Logroño, where it serves as a stop for pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago.

The church contains a 13th-century representation called the Holy Christ of the Knights of the Sepulchre in its apse section.
