Samos.
Monastery of San Julian
mural detail

Samos, Monastery of San Julian.jpg

Painted c.1955 these fantastic and historic figures surround an Oratorium door. Seen during a guided tour this new mural was most impressive and rather frightening.

Parts of the Benedictine monastery complex are 9th century, but the majority was built in the 16th /17th centuries. Much, however, was rebuilt after a 1951 fire.

Vilar de Donas

Edit: the mural of the newly risen Christ will tear your heart. You can decide if that is belief or bewilderment in his eyes
Indeed,
You might make a slight detour at Portos to Vilar de Donas. See why and how here.
