The great monastery of the valley, with cloisters, sacristy, library and the Emilianense codices; until 10 January, visit through AutorIA · 1 h · From €10

Yuso is the "lower" monastery: according to tradition, it was built in the 11th century when the oxen carrying the relics of San Millán to Nájera stopped in the valley and there was no way of moving them. The building you see is mostly from the 16th to 18th centuries, with cloisters, church, sacristy, chapter house, library and archive. The Emilianense codices and the reliquary of the saint, with 11th-century ivories, are kept here. It is looked after by the Augustinian Recollects.
