Bárcena Mayor is the only population center included in the Saja Besaya Natural Park. It is located in a small fertile plain of the Argoza river, at the foot of the mountains of the Cantabrian divide. It stands out for its traditional architecture, the clarity of its limits, preferably marked by the rear facades of the rows and the density of the built plot, which make it a very compact nucleus in which space is used to the maximum, using various solutions to adapt buildings to the terrain.
The most characteristic type of house in the village responds to the mountain house model of rural habitat. In them, the dividing walls protrude on the first floor from “S” corbels to shelter the sun deck, which began to be introduced in the 17th century with the arrival of corn and the need to have a space to dry the cereal.
In Bárcena Mayor, a Historic-Artistic Site since 1979, a visit to the 17th-century church of Santa Maria is a must, as well as the old chancel houses, the mountain mansions of popular use, with wide floors and arcades open by ashlar arches, or the rows two-storey houses, with arcade, utility room and wooden enclosures, which essentially constitute the most represented image of the mountain settlement model.
