Iglesia de Santa María de Cambre

The Romanesque Church of Santa Maria de Cambre, located in Cambre, Galicia, Spain, is one of the outstanding churches in Galician Romanesque architecture. Declared a Bien de Interés Cultural in 1998, this church was originally founded as a private family monastery in the Early Middle Ages by the knight Alvito and his sisters, Vestriberga and Urraca. The first abbot was Adulfo. In 932, it was given to the Benedictine Abbey of San Paio. In 1489, Cambre Priory was incorporated into the Abbey of San Martiño Pinario, which belonged to the reformist Benedictine Congregation of San Benito el Real in Valladolid. However, the church suffered a significant setback in 1589 when it was burnt down by English pirates and had to be rebuilt at the expense of San Martiño Pinario.
