From Torres del Rio to Logrono

In Torres del Rio we toured a 12th century church. The floor is octagonal and its construction is assumed to be from the Knights Templar. There are many stone carved motifs, such as a wild beast with an animal in its mouth, a large head of Silenus (Greek god of wine), names of the Apostles, flowers and crosses. The diameter of the church was very small, probably 500 sq.ft., but the ceiling reached to about 30 feet. A docent at the door explained the motifs and gave us a brief history of the church. There was not much more to see in the town so we called it an early night and visited with other pilgrims in our albergue.
