The Chapel of Saint George, located in the pre-Monegrin landscape, is of popular style and retains a Romanesque-style entrance with archivolts likely belonging to the original 13th-century chapel. Its facade features a striking belfry.
Its elevated location is excellent for orientation in any direction.
Sus cielos son extraordinarios y desde aquí podrás observar la constelación más importante del cielo norte: la Osa Mayor, la tercera constelación más grande.
Its skies are extraordinary, and from here, you can observe the most important constellation of the northern sky: the Big Dipper, the third largest constellation.
Observers in the northern hemisphere can see it every night throughout the year. The two stars at the outer edge of the Big Dipper’s bowl, Merak and Dubhe, are called the “Pointers” because they point to Polaris (the North Star). To find Polaris, draw an imaginary line between these two stars and extend it about five times. When you find Polaris, you’re on your way to finding the Little Dipper and eventually the constellation of Ursa Minor. Polaris is the brightest star in Ursa Minor, marking the end of the Little Dipper’s handle.
