MONASTERIO DE SANTA MARÍA DE BUJEDO DE JUARROS - Burgos

La iglesia, construida en la primera mitad del siglo XIII, presenta planta de cruz latina, con una sola nave de seis tramos, crucero saliente con un tramo por cada brazo y cabecera con tres capillas.

 

En el exterior, la fachada occidental, como sucede con frecuencia dentro de la orden del Císter, es la parte más cuidada, enmarcada por dos contrafuertes muy anchos, con remate en chaflán bastante acentuado. La portada principal se compone de chambrana y tres arquivoltas, dos apuntadas y la interior trebolada. A los lados se disponen dos crismones y en la parte alta se abre un gran ventanal de dos vanos.

 

The church, built in the first half of the 13th century, has a Latin cross plan, with a single nave of six bays, a projecting transept with one bay per arm, and a chancel with three chapels.

 

On the exterior, the west façade, as is often the case within the Cistercian order, is the most carefully crafted section, framed by two very wide buttresses with a pronounced chamfered finish. The main doorway consists of a jamb and three archivolts, two pointed and the inner one trefoiled. Two chrismons are arranged on the sides, and a large two-bay window opens at the top.
