Redecilla del Camino - Virgen de la Calle

The village was known already Aymeric Picaud, when he wrote the Codex Calixtinus ("Iter pro peregrinis ad Compostellam"). Inside the parish church "Virgen de la Calle" is this wonderful 12th century baptismal font. The carving, influenced by moorish art, may depict the "New Jerusalem", capital of the "Messianic Kingdom".
