Cenotafio de San Milán |
First, we went into 2 groups to the monastery of Suso. The guide told us that Suso comes from Latin and means in old Castilian "up" and Yuso, "down". We went in and she told us that the Castilian was written first in Suso, by a monk, but is preserved in Yuso. Inside was not as big as I imagined. There were vains and everything seemed to be made of stone. There were graves on the outside, and inside, the tomb of St. Milan. She also told us that only 20 people can enter at a time.

Then, at 12.15, we entered the monastery of Yuso, it appeared to be much larger than Suso and more developed. They say that the Castilian was invented by the people in the town, because for many years, they have been changing Latin. Until one day, a monk first wrote the Castilian. The pages are called "glosses".
Los restos de San Milán están conservados en Yuso. Los monasterios de Yuso y Suso son declarados como patrimonio de la humanidad.
Each beginning of spring and autumn the equinox occurs. At 6.15 in the afternoon, a ray of light enters the rosette passing through the circle and gives light to the center of the church.
The remains of San Milan are preserved in Yuso. The monasteries of Yuso and Suso are declared as world heritage.
