Highlight • Structure

Curiosa iglesia amurallada, Iglesia parroquial de San Miguel, de estilo románico del siglo XII, iglesia parroquial de San Miguel es un edificio situado en la zona norte del pueblo, en lo alto de un promontorio. En el suelo de su fachada sur se aprecian tumbas antropomorfas medievales. Tiene influjos del incipiente gótico presentes en los arcos fajones de la bóveda algo apuntados. El ábside semicircular típico de las iglesias románicas se suprimió en el XVIII por un crucero coronado por cúpula al que se adosó una sacristía. La portada sur es románica con arquivoltas, capiteles con motivos estilizados y uno de los escasos ejemplos de crismón en la provincia.

Ermita humilladero de la Virgen de la Soledad y via crucis pétreo de Romanillos.
Ermita de la Virgen de la Soledad, construida durante el siglo XVI, que se encuentra, como es habitual en las denominadas genéricamente ermitas de humilladero, a la entrada del pueblo, en la carretera de Medinaceli a Baraona. Es un edificio de planta cuadrada, con tejado a cuatro vertientes, construido en sillería de piedra arenisca. La portada es renacentista y destaca del resto de la construcción: sobre dos puertas con arco de medio punto, como es típico en estas ermitas, se abre una hornacina, hoy vacía, rematada por un frontón triangular con una cruz. El interior es de gran sencillez. La cubierta cuenta con un artesonado de influencia mudéjar. En una elevación inmediatamente cercana a la ermita termina el via crucis de piedra que discurre por el pueblo, erigido a finales del siglo XVI.6
Viacrucis Pétreo, se extiende a lo largo de las calles del pueblo para terminar en una pequeña elevación al lado de la Ermita de la Virgen de la Soledad, llamada Las Hiruelas. Su datación cronológica es dudosa, aunque del año 1577 se conserva un cargo en que se paga al maestro que ha «construido» las cruces del Calvario. Esta fecha puede estar de acuerdo con el estilo prevaleciente en las cruces, ya que se trata de unas obras de traza renacentista aunque algunos elementos son ya de características barrocas.

Medinaceli

Highlight • Settlement

Medinaceli is a place that you should not miss on any bike tour in this region, because even if the climb up the city hill is a bit tedious - it's worth it! You will be greeted by an ancient Roman triumphal arch. It probably dates back to the 1st century and is the city's landmark. The Plaza Mayor is also considered one of the most beautiful squares in Old Castile and invites you to have a coffee under the arcades. The famous song about the Spanish national hero El Cid also mentions the place as an important border crossing for the knight on his journeys between Castile and Valencia. And from the castle hill you can enjoy a beautiful sunset over the vast plains of Castile in the evening.

Arab Arch of Medinaceli

Highlight • Monument

The Arch of Medinaceli, also known as the Roman Arch of Medinaceli, is a unique monument in Spain due to its triple arch structure. It is located in the town of Medinaceli, in the province of Soria, and was built at the end of the 1st century AD, probably during the reign of Emperor Domitian, although it was later associated with Trajan.

Medinaceli

Highlight • Historical Site

As it is believed, despite the currently existing doubts, Medinaceli was the old Ocilis (city that betrayed the Romans, during the Celtiberian wars). In the Plaça Major, inside the Dukes Palace building, important Roman mosaics are preserved. Much of its wall, castle (current cemetery) and various remains of the different cultures that passed through the town are preserved.
