Ermita de San Saturio, Soria
Facts and practical information
The hermitage of San Saturio is located in the Spanish city of Soria, in the homonymous province, autonomous community of Castilla y León. It is popularly considered, in its scenic enclave, one of the most beautiful places that the city has. A scale model of this building can be found in the Mudejar theme park of Olmedo. Since the construction of the hermitage, the common people of Soria, and later its Town Hall, have been responsible for the maintenance of the building, as attested by the fact that the santero, the person in charge of looking after the hermitage and its relics, and who gives the title to the novel of the same name by Juan Antonio Gaya Nuño, was a municipal employee. However, taking advantage of the law of 1998, the Church immatriculated the hermitage behind the backs of the citizens and the City Council, without to date the situation has been reversed or the Bishopric of Osma-Soria has justified this appropriation.
