Zamora Cathedral (Catedral de San Salvador)

Highlight • Religious Site

The Cathedral of San Salvador in Zamora, also known as the Cathedral of the Savior, is a Romanesque jewel and an important historical monument in Spain.
The cathedral is an outstanding example of Douro Romanesque, with Byzantine influences, especially in its famous dome.
It was built between 1140 and 1174 and is the smallest and oldest of the eleven cathedrals in the autonomous community of Castilla y León.
To visit the Cathedral of San Salvador in Zamora and learn more about its history, architecture and the works of art it houses, you can consult its official website or plan a visit to experience its beauty in person. I hope you enjoy discovering this Spanish Romanesque treasure! 🏰✨

Castle of Zamora

Highlight • Castle

Although it was never a palatial castle but a fortress in which to protect itself and the city, it is the element that best defines the history of Zamora, receiving, in addition, the maximum protection within the Spanish Historical Heritage in 1931.
According to the chronicles, it was ordered to be built by Alfonso II, although studies carried out by historians show that it would actually be ordered to be built by Fernando I, so the building would date from the mid-11th century, although very few remains remain from this period.

The Parador de Zamora, a 15th-century palace of the Counts of Alba and Alisteau in the historic center of Zamora, has been transformed into an atmospheric hotel. The inner courtyard with fountain is beautiful, as is the view of the city from the terrace.

The oldest evidence indicates that the church was built in the mid-12th century, although work continued in the 13th century and lasted even until the 14th century.
The church stands out for its south doorway, which is the main one and is in perfect condition, flanked by two slender attached columns and three semicircular archivolts with elegant decoration. If you want to visit it or learn more about its history and architecture, I recommend consulting specialized sources or visiting its page on Románico Zamora for detailed information. I hope you enjoy your visit to this important historical monument! 🏰✨

Plaza Mayor, Zamora
