Basilica of San Prudencio de Armentia

Vitoria-Gasteiz, Spain

The Basilica of San Prudencio de Armentia (Basílica de San Prudencio de Armentia, Basque: Armentiako San Prudentzioren basilika) is a basilica located in Armentia, Vitoria-Gasteiz, Basque Country, Spain. It was built in the 12th-century in Romanesque style. The basilica lies on the Camino de Santiago. Originally dedicated to Saint Andrew, it was refurbished in 1776, destroying part of its original structure, although the apse and other isolated elements such were retained. The last mayor works in the basilica took place after the partial collapse of the vault in 1961. Despite the 1776 reform, it is considered one of the most important examples of medieval art in Álava. It was declared Bien de Interés Cultural in 1931 and Basque Cultural Heritage in 2012.
