Romanesque tower of the monastery.
San Salvador de Tábara Monastery is a monastery in the present-day town of Tábara in Spain. It was founded at the end of the 9th century after Alfonso III of Asturias's victory at the battle of Polvoraria.
Its 12th century tower survives. It is notable as the home of the scriptorium which produced the Tábara Beatus, Morgan Beatus and Gerona Beatus.
