The church of Saint Bartholomew, which dates back to the 12th century, is the oldest church in the town of Logroño. It preserves part of the Romanesque style, in the choir and in the initial part of the tower, and was built during the 13th century, with the development of the Gothic style, with the construction of the magnificent Gothic portal from the 14th century, which contains some Romanesque sculptures that tell the story of the life of the saint and other passages from the Bible.
The Imperial Church of Santa María de Palacio was built between the 12th and 13th centuries, with the transept and choir being rebuilt in the 15th century. From the original structure, the eight-sided pyramidal dome in Gothic style in the shape of an imperial crown has been preserved, which is part of the city's skyline. In the 18th century, the structure was redesigned to strengthen the interior so that it could withstand the thrust of the pyramidal spire on the outside in the Baroque style.
The church of Santiago el Real was built between 1570 and 1573 on an old medieval church that was almost completely destroyed by fire. The Renaissance façade was commissioned to Juan Raón and built between 1669 and 1672. In 1667, Juan Raón was also commissioned to replace the upper choir with a lower choir with a gallery, work began and the western walls were knocked down, but they were not continued. The sacristy and chapter house also date from the 18th century.
