Audio tour · Monasterio de Suso

You're standing at San Millán de Suso, high on the hillside above the little village of San Millán de la Cogolla in La Rioja. Suso simply means 'upper' in old Castilian. Now look down into the valley. That's its big sibling, the monastery of Yuso, the 'lower' one. Together they've been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since December 1997.
