The Plaza del Torico is the heart of Teruel, a city in Aragon, Spain. This square is famous for its small statue of a bull, known as “El Torico,” which sits atop a column in the center of the square. The square has an oval shape and is surrounded by historic and modernist buildings, as well as bars and restaurants where you can enjoy local cuisine.

The fountain of El Torico, dating back to 1855, is one of the most emblematic elements of the square. Legend has it that during the Reconquista, a bull guided by a star led the troops of King Alfonso II to the place where Teruel was founded.

Central square in the old center of the old town of Teruel. The name comes from the figures of bulls found in the same central fountain
