Gypsum quarries and hermitage of Belvis

Curiosity · Hornillos de Cerrato, El Cerrato, Palencia

Image of Hornillos de Cerrato, not of the place itself.

On top of the hill gypsum quarries were worked that supplied the surrounding villages, and on the eastern slope stands the hermitage of Nuestra Señora de Belvis, which was an Augustinian convent before moving to Palencia.
