San Millán de la Cogolla Monastery

Highlight • Religious Site

The complex formed by the monasteries of Suso (high) and Yuso (low) was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1997. Its value lies not only in its architectural heritage, with its Gothic cloister or royal sarcophagi, but also in its cultural heritage by housing the codex where a monk wrote the first words in Spanish.

The first monastery dates back to the 11th century, but the complex and the entire town have evolved over the centuries until reaching the splendor and atmosphere that they offer today.

Monastery of Suso

Highlight • Religious Site

Suso (from the Latin sursum) means "up", and is how this oldest monastery is known. Yuso (from the Latin deorsum) means “below” and is the other name by which the more modern Monastery of San Millán de la Cogolla is known.

Both were declared in 1997 by UNESCO, World Heritage, World Heritage. It is an exciting place, full of history and mystery. The guided tour (€4) includes the bus ride.
