Salamanca's Plaza Mayor, from the 18th century, is one of the most beautiful urban monumental squares in Europe. Its construction began in 1729 at the request of the magistrate Rodrigo Caballero Llanes. The project was in charge of the architect Alberto de Churriguera, followed by his nephew Manuel de Lara Churriguera and was completed by Andrés García de Quiñones in 1755. Located in the center of the city, it forms an irregular supported quadrilateral, with three floors in each facade, chaired by the City Council. In the Royal Pavilion the effigy of King Ferdinand III El Santo stands out and the medallions on the spandrels of its arches represent Spanish monarchs. In the south pavilion, or of San Martín in the medallions we see illustrious soldiers or conquerors, while in the petrineros pavilion the figures of the medallions are characters of the culture.

House of Shells

Highlight • Historical Site

It is a stately mansion from the time of the Catholic Monarchs, combining late Gothic, Mudejar, and Renaissance styles.
Its construction began in the late 15th century by order of Rodrigo Maldonado de Talavera, although it was his son, Rodrigo Arias Maldonado, who completed it and lived there.
It owes its name to the more than 300 shells depicted on its façade, arranged in staggered rows, following a rhomboidal composition typical of the Mudejar style.

Roman Bridge of Salamanca

Highlight • Bridge

The Roman Bridge of Salamanca is part of the Vía de la Plata, which linked Mérida with Astorga. Although its origin is Roman, from the 1st century AD, only the fifteen arches closest to the city are from this period, the other eleven undergoing various reconstructions as a result of the floods of the Tormes.
