Columnas y Contrafuertes, Iglesia de Santa María Real del Sar - Columnas e Contrafortes, Igrexa de Santa María Real do Sar, Santiago de Compostela, 2012.
The flying buttresses were not a part of the original building, but they were added when the walls began to collapse.
In a city full of architectural gems, the small, mostly romanesque Santa María Real do Sar is my favorite, away from the crush of pilgrims and tourists and thus easier to examine and enjoy.
