The Monastery of San Millán de la Cogolla is a place of great importance in the La Rioja region of Spain. Founded in the 6th century AD by Saint Millán, this monastery has a rich history and a special connection with the Castilian language.

Mostajo of the Cárdenas River

Highlight • Natural Monument

This mostajo or rowan is located a few meters from a path that runs through the Sierra de la Demanda. Rowans are small trees that rarely reach fifteen meters in height. However, this is a rowan tree to be highlighted, probably one of the largest known specimens from the Peninsula and surely one of the longest-lived.

San Millán de la Cogolla Monastery

Highlight • Religious Site

The complex formed by the monasteries of Suso (high) and Yuso (low) was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1997. Its value lies not only in its architectural heritage, with its Gothic cloister or royal sarcophagi, but also in its cultural heritage by housing the codex where a monk wrote the first words in Spanish.

The first monastery dates back to the 11th century, but the complex and the entire town have evolved over the centuries until reaching the splendor and atmosphere that they offer today.
