Segovia - San Martín
A Celtic castle existed here, from which resistance against the Romans originated. The city was nevertheless taken. Afterward, it began to be built as a Roman city and became an important Roman military base.
In the second half of the 5th century, Segovia became part of the Visigoth Empire. From the 8th to the 11th centuries, Segovia was under Moorish possession. In 1085 Alfonso VI conquered the city. From the 13th to the 15th century it was a royal residence.
San Martin was built in the 12th century.
It is located in the center of the town, halfway between the Cathedral and the Roman aqueduct. It is of Mozarabic origin in Romanesque style.
Today's church differs partially from the original as some parts were rebuilt or removed, such as the central apse, which was replaced. It consists of three naves, a transept with a brick dome, and a three-part apse.
The Romanesque-Mudéjar style bell tower was built with brick arches on stone pillars. The arcaded gallery surrounds the entire church with the exception of the chancel.
Four slender apostle sculptures flank the entrance.
