Among its monuments are the Basilica of Our Lady of the Prado, which houses what is today the patron saint of the city.

This bridge is not only the highest in Spain (and second in Europe) but also one of the most controversial. With a bill of 74 million euros to the public coffers and almost 30% more than cost, it is a symbol of the political irresponsibility and speculation that ran rampant in the 2000s in Spain. The ring road for which the bridge was built was completed in 2022, trying to silence the criticism that for years accused the bridge of not leading anywhere but, even so, it continues to be questioned by many if its low utility justifies the cost that it had and still has to maintain it.
