Burgos is a legacy. It is history and it is a city in which it always works to return to the past to give value to the true future. Based on this premise, it was inaugurated yesterday the exhibition 40 years of #estiloverino that arrived in the city of El Cid with another squire who was none other than Roberto Verino himself.

2- The majestic covered cloister of the Monastery of San Juan
The fifth stop of the exhibition on the occasion of the 40 years of #estiloverino is celebrated in a unique place: the covered cloister of the Monastery of San Juan.
The origins of the Monastery of San Juan date back to the 11th century, when the French monk Lesmes settled in this place with the idea of launching a small care complex at the service of Jacobean pilgrims.
