Church of San Pedro de Nora

Les Regueres, Spain · built 801

Saint Peter of Nora (Iglesia de San Pedro de Nora) is a Roman Catholic Pre-Romanesque church, located in Las Regueras, Asturias, Spain, beside the Nora river, about 12 km from Oviedo. The church is recorded for the first time in a donation document of Alfonso III of Asturias in 905. Given its similarities with the church of San Julián de los Prados and the church of Santa María de Bendones, it was probably built in the times of Alfonso II of Asturias. Declared a National Monument in 1931, the church was damaged by a fire in 1936 during the Spanish Civil War, losing its roof. It was restored by Luis Menéndez Pidal y Alvarez.
