Church of Santa María de Melide

Monument · Melide, Terra de Melide, A Coruña

A Romanesque church of the late 12th century, with a single nave and a semicircular apse, declared a Monumento Nacional (Spain's heritage designation in force until 1931); the apse vault keeps 16th-century paintings of the Trinity surrounded by apostles and angels, and a wrought-iron screen with no parallel in the Galician Romanesque.
