Bordecorex, la torre que “nunca” existió.

In Bordecorex (Soria), Mansur say he died in 1002, back in Medinaceli, after its defeat in Calatañazor. Recaptured in 1060 by Ferdinand I, the present church dates from the beginning of the XIIIth. On February 20, 2008, collapsed the "nonexistent" strong tower of that church. Fortunately, when we visited the place this October, the tower that "never existed" had been completely rebuilt. Now go back to "not exist", airy, elegant point, but robust, and it is for many years.

No joke, there is a disconcerting event. In his book "Roman Roads in the province of Soria" , Cayetano Enríquez de Salamanca, Romance pioneer routes, which we both lovers of these stones, he says, on page 79, under the heading "Bordecorex" "A foot is a belfry demolished and there has not been mentioned tower and even plays Gaya Nuño" . Must be a rabbit, which we have escaped all on occasion, because otherwise we should ask who was the joker who put a tower there that exist, that breaks down and had to be rebuilt?

Building work has also been eliminated heightening the apse, restoring its original height while leaks and debris were removed added. Good is good, but not release from the rooftops ...
In return we have to endure the usual "poster" which proclaims how generous the politicians of the Board, how good are the politicians of the Board, "how good are they restore galore ..." And the Euros have been spent on repairing the monument, which would have been much less if they had heeded the warnings of doom that were given. And the jobs they have created with this work, due to budget money, our money, our taxes ...
.
However, because they are so good and so kind, politicians of the Board, in addition to "restore galore", they refuse to charge expenses and abuse of public money. Therefore, they left the restaurant half-full, and inside there is no way to see and photograph it is virtually impossible ...

was noon, advanced, lunchtime brooded for our stomachs. In the village you smelled the fragrant smoke of a wood-fired grill on coals which roasted juicy chops. Someone in the group, overcoming olfactory torment, someone managed to find a desert town, with great kindness, but some reluctance, he offered to bring the key and allow the temple's entrance. That if, after those who sought to warn that they could not take pictures.

Oddest of all is that once inside the other, we ignored the ban the photo, we looked like crazy shoot cameras, even with flash. And the key holder, failed to repeat his prohibition. "She did not care or understand the absurdity of the case? Are you scared of the group so large? Did not want to dispute, because he wanted was to go to eat in peace?

course is to ban the pictures, because its interior has nothing to envy to the temple of N ª S ª del Otero, in Ponferrada (León). Paredes, columns and capitals, with layers and layers of lime, where the humidity that has made knock off the plaster, exposing the lower layers of another color. This profusely decorated with layers of dust and cobwebs.

To Whom It May Concern: Will wait to collapse the rest of the church, as happened with the tower, to attend its restoration? Will is waiting, for art dealers will vacate the premises, and finish robbing the house of their few valuables? Maybe, the prohibition of photos, is based on the shame he feels for having the building as trapicheantes cave? Let's presume
