    The Plaza Mayor of Salamanca, from the 18th century, is one of the most beautiful monumental urban squares in Europe. Construction began in 1729 at the request of mayor Rodrigo Caballero Llanes. The project was carried out by 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 on each façade, chaired by the City Council. In the Royal Pavilion, the effigy of King Fernando 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 petrine pavilion the figures on the medallions are cultural figures.
