The church of San Pedro de Grado, built in 1884 and designed by the architect Lucas María Palacios, is an example of nineteenth-century architecture with Romanesque and Gothic influences. It stands out for its monumentality and the use of carved stone in its construction. It has three naves, transept and a triple straight chancel, as well as a front with a double bell tower.
Despite suffering damage during the Civil War, the church preserves valuable altarpieces and sculptures donated by prominent local figures. Its location on the Primitive Way makes it a point of interest for pilgrims, although its later construction distances it from the original Romanesque style that characterizes many other churches along this route.
