Seat of Philip II
Highlight • Viewpoint
Some experts assure that these granite seats, for the king and two companions, are the remains of a thousand-year-old Celtiberian altar. From here you can perceive that the Monastery has the shape of an inverted grill, in homage to San Lorenzo, who was martyred in one of them back in the year 258, since it is located on a small hill from which the Guadarrama Valley and the Sierra de Navacerrada.
