Ulick Ralph Burke wrote that the “country round about Compludo is one of the most interesting in the history of religion in the Peninsula… It is the birthplace of Spanish monarchism –the Thebaïd of the Peninsula- and once rivalled the holiest districts of Palestine in the number of its saints and monasteries.
