Monasterio de San Millan de la Cogolla
San Millán has a claim to being the birthplace of the Spanish language. The area is Spanish-speaking but some of the local place-names are of Basque origin, and there is evidence that Basque was spoken locally a thousand years ago. The Monastery, pictured herein, houses numerous original books written in "Castizo."
