Soto de Bureba - San Andrés
San Andrés was erected on a little hill, that was settled already in pre-Roman times, as recent excavation proved. The tiny hamlet Soto de Bureba is part of the village Quintanaélez (pop. ~ 100).
An inscription above the portal gives the construction date of 1175. During medieval times the area must have been much more densely populated, as later even a second nave was added to the structure.
The parish church is known for its wonderful, sculpted portal, seen here. The arches have an interesting, but somehow strange iconography. Some of the icons are pretty unique. There is a collection of really fantastic and mythical beasts.
The large statue of chained man/prisoner stands on the left side (previous upload).
Opposite on the right side this (swaller) sculpture of a woman. They are probably a couple, but as the story is lost. Strange, that the lady, seen here, is much more damaged than her partner on the left. Especially face and chest and dotted with craters. The beast above her head is perfectly preserved. Why did people hate her so much?
