Cross of Peñalba

Cross of Peñalba, a 10th century Mozarabic piece

The Cross of Peñalba is a 10th-century votive cross given by Ramiro II of Leon to Genadio of Astorga, abbot of the monastery of Santiago de Peñalba, in gratitude for the assistance of St James in the Battle of Simancas in 939 against Abd-ar-Rahman III.

Today, the Cross of Peñalba is reclaimed as one of the main symbols of identity for the region of El Bierzo, prominently featured at the center of its coat of arms and flag.
