The **Church of La Asunción** in **Castrillo de Duero** is a church from the 12th century. Among its components, the unusual altarpiece catches the eye. Created by Rococo artist **Roque Muñoz** between 1602 and 1605, it was placed in the church, which was built during the Romanesque period. Today, this medieval church houses a beautiful piece of art that seemingly transports visitors to the Baroque era, a style it was not initially meant for.
The mystery of this unconventional placement remains a captivating attribute in this historic place.
