Things to see and do Segovia

This Plaza Mayor has existed since 1461, but it took its present form in 1532, when the church of Saint-Michel (at that time the square was called Plaza San Miguel in reference to the church), which was in the centre, collapsed and had to be rebuilt on one side. All around the square, the granite town hall (1610), the Juan Bravo theatre (1917), and in the centre a music kiosk where concerts are regularly held. This is also where you will find the tourism office, very professional and well documented.

Visible from afar because of its 50 m tall tower, which was destroyed by lightning and rebuilt in 1896.

Segovia had 30 Romanesque churches, but still 18. Don't angoissez if you don't see them all.

Segovia, a thousand-year-old town, offers visitors a journey through history. Its Romanesque architectural ensemble is one of the most impressive in Europe, including the famous Aqueduct, a grandiose symbol left by the Romans in Hispania. Perched on a hill, the Alcázar, a fairytale castle, dominates the town, offering panoramic views of the Eresma and Clamores rivers. Segovia's historic center, protected by ramparts and fortified towers, is a veritable gem of stone. The Roman Aqueduct, a two-thousand-year-old monument, is the symbol of the city and of Western culture. The city was also awarded the title of World Heritage City in 1985, thanks to the perfect preservation of its medieval structure. Visitors can enjoy Segovia's architectural beauty by visiting its many monuments and strolling through its picturesque streets.
