Plaza Mayor

Top choice in Castilla y León


The partly colonnaded Plaza Mayor is a lovely centrepiece to the village and one of Castilla y León's prettiest village squares. The oldest remaining building is the 16th-century Alhónidga, which is the only building on the square with two-storey colonnades.
