Heritage
The parish church is dedicated to San Millán. Originally a Romanesque building, it was substantially reformed by Fausto Íñiguez de Betolaza in the early 20th century. Additionally, there are two chapels in Villamaderne, dedicated to Santa Lucía and Nuestra Señora de la Blanca.
The most notable civil buildings in Villamaderne are the palace-tower and the Venta Blanca, located next to the chapel of Nustra Señora de la Blanca.[3]
