Ecclesiola, the little church

Curiosity · Herguijuela de la Sierra, Sierra de Francia, Salamanca

The village appears as Ecclesiola in 1188 and as Ecclesia in 1215: its name is the Latin diminutive of church and could allude to the small Early Christian and Visigothic oratories. It preserves its traditional mountain architecture well.
