The Cathedral of Santa María is an imposing testimony of faith and art. It began to be built in the 12th century and stood as a grandiose temple in the heart of the city. Its history is intertwined with the presence and return of Christianity after Muslim domination.

The Castle of Enrique II of Trastámara is one of the most surprising and best preserved that we can find in the province of Salamanca. It is located in Ciudad Rodrigo, just 30 kilometers from the border with Portugal. Its objective was to defend the entrance to the bridge located over the Águeda river.
