The rock-cut hermitage of the Virgen de la Peña

Monument · Tosantos, Montes de Oca, Burgos

Image of Tosantos, not of the place itself.

Carved into the rock of a hill facing the village, it shows only its façade on the outside. It measures some sixteen metres in length by seven in width and keeps, in a Rococo altarpiece, the Romanesque carving of the Virgen de la Peña.
