Basilica of San Prudencio de Armentia

The basilica displays a Latin cross layout with vaults over the apse and features four sculptures of evangelists integrated into the arches.

The building dates from the 12th century and underwent substantial modifications in 1776, which resulted in alterations to its original structure.

The tympana contains Biblical representations including the Lamb, the Resurrection of Jesus, and scenes that exemplify Romanesque sculpture in the region.

The basilica stands in the southwestern periphery of Vitoria-Gasteiz, accessible through walking paths and garden areas surrounding the structure.

Archaeological excavations in the 21st century revealed Roman remains and burial sites that predate the 12th-century construction of the church.
