HISTORY
In 1145, the marriage of aristrocracy and piety brought about the abbey when the Lord of Valladolid's daughter Doña Mayor donated "terras et vineas" to the church.
Abadía Santa Maria de Retuerta was built for the Premonstratensian Order.
Baroque-Romanesque in style, it has a classic Benedictine layout of church, cloister, refectory, chapterhouse and hospedería.
It is one of only two such abbeys to have survived the destruction wrought by Napoleon and is a treasured Spanish cultural heritage site.
The recent abbey renovation respects the integrity of 1000 years of history.
The original monastic uses of rooms were maintained, the Romanesque-Baroque architecture conserved, not altered.
Opulent new furnishings, lighting and climate control make modern guests feel at home without compromise to the ancient site.
"To alter this ancient edifice was to engage in a 1000 year-old architectural dialogue. The judicious restraint of my intervention is my homage to those who spoke before me." – Marco Serra, Master Architect.
In the ancient hall, LeDomaine's 27 double rooms and 3 suites have been carefully renovated and styled to contemporary five-star standards with every amenity you would expect in a luxury hotel.
Each accommodation has generous views overlooking wide expanses of vineyards and vividly changing Spanish skies.
Establishing symbiotic harmony between people and nature was fundamental in Romanesque architecture and essential to the lifestyle of the monks as well.
Quiet harmony resonates throughout the whole of Le Domaine.
