Preserving History
The hermitage of San Juan de Ruesta, at the foot of the Pyrenees, is a stopover for pilgrims on the Pilgrim's Way to Santiago de Compostela. Thanks to the careful intervention of Sebastián Arquitectos, the abandoned ruins have been transformed into a historical testimony that captivates visitors and preserves the local heritage of the region. The restoration is part of a master plan to revitalise the entire area around the Yesa reservoir.
