Gosh, that's quite a strange-looking building. There is something about the shape of the roofs on the two spires which makes it look unreal - almost like a wooden-block church in a child's toy village or something. Any ideas about its architectural history?
I understand the crosses on the lawn to mark of course some of the departed but what are those square items ? but I suppose they are also grave markers...still it has a pleasantly higgledly-piggledy look rather like markers for some cosmic giant slalom perhaps one imagines angels and elementals etc weaving between them

We'll be doing a short tour up north in Zamora in a couple of weeks. That's the city with the most Romanesque architecture in all of Europe.
