Visitei esta antes de ir á igreja de Santa Maria del Naranco, estão na mesma estrada do Monte de Naranco mas a de San Miguel está mais acima. Tal como a sua vizinha, a sua construção teve lugar durante o reinado de Ramiro I das Astúrias e foi também considerada Patrimonio da Humanidade por parte da UNESCO. Pode não ser tão monumental como a outra mas não deixa de ter o seu interesse e tive muita pena (outra vez) porque estava também fechada mas segundo o edital na sua porta era por obras.
I visited this before going to the church of Santa Maria del Naranco, they are on the same road of Mount Naranco but San Miguel is higher. Like its neighbor, its construction took place during the reign of Ramiro I of Asturias and was also considered a World Heritage by UNESCO. May not be as monumental as the other but it is still interesting and I was (once again) sorry because it was also closed that according to the announcement on the door it is because of reconstruction work.
Dizem que a igreja original era bastante maior mas que a sua deterioração fez com que no século XIV apenas sobrevivesse a parte que vemos hoje. Ainda assim há muito pouco tempo tiveram que fazer obras de restauro porque se temia que não aguentasse por muito mais.
Enquanto Santa Maria del Naranco servia como uma residência do rei, San Miguel de Lillo que está dedicada ao Arcanjo foi construída como igreja e assim se manteve desde o século IX. Faltou ver a Santa Cristina de Lena que também fará parte do grupo de edificações que Ramiro I mandou fazer durante o seu reinado, cuja beleza era suficientemente valiosa para defendê-la dos inimigos. As Astúrias têm tudo: montanha, mar, praia, boa comida, boa bebida, boa gente e monumentos que testemunham a sua história.
They say that the original church was much larger but deterioration caused that in the fourteenth century that the only part we see today was what survived. Still very recently they had to do restoration work because it was feared that it would not hold for much longer.
While Santa Maria del Naranco served as a residence of the King, San Miguel de Lillo which is dedicated to the Archangel was built as a church and held since the ninth century. I missed out the Santa Cristina de Lena that is also be part of the group of buildings that Ramiro I had ordered during his reign, whose beauty was valuable enough to defend it from enemies. Asturias has everything: mountains, sea, beach, good food, good drink, good people and monuments that testify to its history.
