The town of Támara de Campos (Palencia) has some very notable buildings such as the church of San Hipólito el Real, which dates back to 1334; its erection was favoured by King Alfonso XI. However, the building that has survived to the present day dates from the end of the 15th and beginning of the 16th centuries. In 1568 the original tower collapsed, which meant that reconstruction work had to be carried out on the church, affecting both the exterior appearance of the building –as can be seen in the tower, which is more modern than the rest of the building– and the interior, since in addition to the reconstruction of the affected vaults, the collapse also affected the movable property preserved in the church. The temple was declared a Historic-Artistic Monument (BIC) on 4 June 1931. Also worth mentioning are the monastery of San Miguel and the church-chapel of the pilgrims' hospital, as the town was an important landmark on the Camino de Santiago as it passed through Castilian lands.
