Monasterio de Yuso



24 February 2011
Sender: Shelly
Monasterio de Yuso, La Rioja
Shelly wrote that this is Monastery of Yuso and Suso, San Millan, awarded UNESCO World Heritage Centre in 1994 not only for its artistic value but mainly because the first words ever written in Spanish were written and found there. 


Read from the net that a monk had put annotations in Spanish and Basque next to a Latin text kept there.
