The Monastery of Santo Domingo de Silos, founded in the 10th century, stands out for its historical and architectural importance. From the entrance on Calle de la Cadena to the neoclassical church of San Pedro, the video explores the monastic cloister, the pharmacy with 18th-century pharmacy instruments, the library with pharmacy books from the 16th century, and the treasure trove of medieval goldsmiths. Among the jewels, the Romanesque altar frontal from the 12th century and El Beato de Silos, a Mozarabic manuscript from the 11th century, stand out. The video concludes with the church where Gregorian chants can be heard during the daily services, with free admission.
