I've explored the medieval village of Santillana del Mar on several occasions and I would say that the grand Colegiata is one of its most unforgettable sights. It’s a really representative work of Romanesque art and a must if you’re in the area. The €3 entry price gives you access to the courtyard and the interior of the temple.
The Colegiata de Santa Juliana is located in Santillana del Mar, one of those magical places where the past and present intermix and the streets seem like they haven’t changed in centuries. At one point, the Colegiata was the religious center of the community. The church is Romanesque and the walls of its three naves are covered in beautiful medieval sculptures. One of my favorite parts was the lovely altarpiece and, of course, the cloister.
