The Sanctuary of Our Lady of Dorleta (Basque: Dorletako Amaren santutegia, Spanish: Santuario de Nuestra Señora de Dorleta) is in the village of Leintz Gatzaga in the Gipuzkoa province of the Basque Country in Spain, near the Arlaban pass. The sanctuary has been documented since the Middle Ages, but most of the current structure is Baroque.[1] Our Lady of Dorleta is considered the patron saint of cyclists in Spain.[2]
