Church of Santa Eulalia of the Monastery of Arnoso was originally founded in the 7th century on the initiative of San Frutuoso, Bishop of Dume and Braga. It was destroyed by the Moors in the 11th century. It was later rebuilt by King García II of Galicia.
It is a simple church in early Romanesque style with a nave, a barrel vault and a rectangular apse with blind arches. The wooden portal consist of round arches and a tympanum with a cross pattée. These round arches are profusely decorated with geometric, intertwined and zoomorphic elements.
Inside the church there are a few sixteenth century frescoes with episodes from the life of Our Lady. The two crosses on top of the roof show some similarities with Celtic crosses.
References:Rosenborg Palace was built in the period 1606-34 as Christian IV’s summerhouse just outside the ramparts of Copenhagen. Christian IV was very fond of the palace and often stayed at the castle when he resided in Copenhagen, and it was here that he died in 1648. After his death, the palace passed to his son King Frederik III, who together with his queen, Sophie Amalie, carried out several types of modernisation.
The last king who used the place as a residence was Frederik IV, and around 1720, Rosenborg was abandoned in favor of Frederiksborg Palace.Through the 1700s, considerable art treasures were collected at Rosenborg Castle, among other things items from the estates of deceased royalty and from Christiansborg after the fire there in 1794.
Soon the idea of a museum arose, and that was realised in 1833, which is The Royal Danish Collection’s official year of establishment.
