The holy maiden of Sequeros

Curiosity · Sequeros, Sierra de Francia, Salamanca

Image of Sequeros, not of the place itself.

Juana Hernández, the holy maiden, announced before dying around 1424 that an image of the Virgin would appear on the Peña de Francia, just as happened ten years later. Her remains rest alongside those of Simón Vela in the church of El Robledo.
