Álava reúne la mejor colección de arte románico de Euskadi. Más de 240 iglesias y ermitas repartidas por las diferentes comarcas del territorio conservan total o parcialmente rasgos y elementos de este estilo artístico y arquitectónico, y dan testimonio de la azarosa historia medieval de la provincia.
Os proponemos en las siguientes páginas conocer este valioso patrimonio y aprovechar la ocasión para disfrutar también de los pueblos, la cultura, la gastronomía y la naturaleza de la provincia. El románico favorece esta simbiosis al estar unido a la vida rural y tener presencia en muchos templos ubicados en bosques, colinas, riscos y villas bien conservadas.
El viajero puede realizar rutas muy diferentes para acercarse a las iglesias y ermitas románicas de Álava, pero cualquier combinación debe incluir sus dos joyas: el Santuario de Nuestra Señora de Estíbaliz, situado en las inmediaciones de la localidad de Argandoña; y la Basílica de San Prudencio en Armentia, enclavada en una zona rural de la misma capital Vitoria-Gasteiz.

Visitar Estíbaliz tiene además como aliciente el camino, ya que pese a que es posible llegar cómodamente en coche, es muy recomendable hacerlo a pie o en bicicleta a través de la Vía Verde del Ferrocarril Vasco-Navarro que parte del sur de Vitoria-Gasteiz. El recorrido permite disfrutar de varios pueblos y las viejas estaciones del antiguo Trenico. A los pies del cerro sobre el que se asientan pasa también el Camino de Santiago.
Cerca del Santuario de Estíbaliz se levantan otros ejemplos del románico alavés que merecen visita como la ermita de Santa Columba (Argandoña), la ermita de Nuestra Señora de Ayala (Alegría-Dulantzi), la iglesia de la Natividad de Nuestra Señora (Añua) o las iglesias pintadas de Alaitza y Gazeo (ver información adicional).
La Basílica de San Prudencio y San Andrés de Armentia es el otro imprescindible del románico alavés.
No hay excusas para quienes se alojen en Vitoria-Gasteiz, ya que un agradable paseo peatonal de apenas media hora bajo una bóveda vegetal de plátanos centenarios, muy frecuentado por los y las vitorianas, une el centro de la capital alavesa y este templo construido en el siglo XII sobre los restos de una catedral prerrománica.
