Summary[edit]

Description
English: Rock Chapel of Saint Vincent in Vado, Cervera de Pisuerga (Palencia, Castile and León). Located close to the confluence of river Rivera with the Pisuerga and falls within one of the greatest Spanish eremitic groups, the one of High Pisuerga. Basically presents a large rectangular Hall with several inputs and crude vain, to which is added a chapel excavated in the East, differentiated from the rest by a step that may have been closed using a masonry apse. The Hermitage is surrounded by a necropolis, dated between the 8th and 11th centuries, which have been discovered tombs excavated in the rock twenty predominating of anthropomorphic type. The Hermitage and the necropolis probably formed part of a small monastic complex that would possess other buildings today disappeared, as well as excavated in the rock (lauras) cells that still remain. Missing the monastic community, St. Vincent retained its role as the chapel until the middle of the 19th century leaves permanently.
Español: Ermita rupestre de San Vicente en Vado, Cervera de Pisuerga (Palencia, Castilla y León). Se encuentra en las cercanías de la confluencia del río Rivera con el Pisuerga, y se enmarca dentro de uno de los grandes conjuntos eremíticos españoles, el del Alto Pisuerga. Básicamente presenta una gran sala rectangular con varias entradas y toscos vanos, a la que se suma, una capilla excavada al Este, diferenciada del resto por un escalón, que pudo haber estado cerrada mediante un ábside de mampostería.

La Ermita está rodeada de una necrópolis, fechada entre los siglos VIII y XI, de la que se han descubierto una veintena de tumbas excavadas en la roca, predominando las de tipo antropomorfo.

La Ermita y la necrópolis probablemente formaron parte de un pequeño complejo monástico que poseería otros edificios hoy desaparecidos, así como celdas excavadas en la roca (lauras) que aún hoy perduran. Desaparecida la comunidad monacal, San Vicente conservó su función como ermita hasta mediados del siglo XIX en que se abandona definitivamente.
