Todos sabemos que los romanos elegían muy bien los emplazamientos de sus ciudades, un ejemplo más es cuando llegamos a Retortillo en Cantabria (Spain), por ese motivo situaron allí la ciudad romana de Julióbriga en un altozano, desde donde divisamos el valle del río Ebro y cumbres de montañas con bellos paisajes.
La iglesia románica de Santa María en Retortillo emplazada en ese entorno, está datada en el siglo XII, consta de una sola nave, el presbiterio tiene a ambos lados esbeltas arquerías murales con dos arcos de medio punto, arcos ajedrezados, columnas con variados capiteles y dos palomas en la unión de los arcos.

We all know that the Romans chose the locations of their cities very well, one more example is when we arrive at Retortillo in Cantabria (Spain), for that reason they placed the Roman city of Julióbriga there on a hillock, from where we can see the valley of the Ebro River and mountain peaks with beautiful landscapes.
The Romanesque church of Santa María in Retortillo located in that environment, is dated in the 12th century, consists of a single nave, the presbytery has on both sides slender wall arches with two semicircular arches, checkered arches, columns with various capitals and two doves at the junction of the arches.
