Una colegiata muy interesante. El claustro es bellísimo, al igual que el interior de la colegiata. En el claustro hay información sobre el camino de Santiago primitivo. En el templo se encuentran la tumba y los restos de Santa Juliana. La parte del coro está muy bien conservaba. Se entra por el lateral izquierdo y allí mismo puedes comprar la entrada a 3€.
Templo religioso y joya arquitectónica del pueblo, con una preciosa portalada que te adentra en su interior para transportarte a otra época, precioso retablo mayor gótico y el sepulcro de Santa Juliana, por no hablar de su fantástico claustro con 42 capiteles de diferentes temáticas
Esta iglesia tiene un claustro románico monumental , no me esperaba la belleza y la calidad artística de su interior merece la pena pagar un módico precio de 3 euros para visitarla , si vas a Santillana del Mar no deje de visitarla.
