Calle Mayor, at the end of its route, widens, forming a square where there is a public fountain in charge of supplying water to the population. It fulfilled this function until 1910, when the deposit was built. It simply consists of a column with a square base from which four water pipes supply. It is believed that it may date from the beginning of the 18th century. Next to the fountain are the Hermitage of San Roque and the Teatro Principal.

Tower of the Church of San Roque (The Cathedral of the Fish)

Highlight • Monument

The Tower of the Church of San Roque, popularly known as the Cathedral of the Fish, rises above the waters of the Ebro reservoir. With the construction of the reservoir, between 1921 and 1945, towns in the region, such as Medianedo, La Magdalena and Quintanilla, disappeared under its waters. A must visit for everyone visiting the area - the place is super nice and quiet.
