セルベーラデロスモンテスのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

The Church of El Salvador is one of the oldest parishes in the city. Records of its existence date back to 1145. Its current coffered ceiling was built around 1570. It was a church rich in 17th- and 18th-century religious imagery. The beautiful Mudéjar-style apse of the original church is still preserved. Castilians and Christians were tried in its atrium. The church ceased its activities in 1981 and, after 34 years of inactivity, reopened its doors in 2015 after extensive restoration as a cultural center.

It is located on Corredera del Cristo Street, near the Plaza del Reloj (Clock Square), in the old town of Talavera de la Reina, Toledo. It is visible from the street, and it is common for passersby to cross themselves as they pass by, continuing a deeply rooted popular tradition.

The chapel forms part of an albarrana tower, one of the defensive structures of Talavera's first walled enclosure, later converted for religious use. Its Rococo altarpiece is particularly noteworthy, housing the carving of Christ of the Merchants, a symbol of devotion especially among the merchant guild. The base features granite pieces with coats of arms, possibly belonging to the Maldonado lineage, although their exact provenance remains a subject of debate.

Taking advantage of the excavation of one of the Albarrana Towers in the city wall, a chapel was built in 1752 on Corredera Street. It housed a Rococo altarpiece with a panel of Christ, linked to the merchants and traders who lived on the street and financed its construction.

The Basilica of Our Lady of the Prado is located in Talavera de la Reina. The church was built in the 16th century in the Renaissance style, on the foundations of an old Mudéjar temple. Tradition holds that it was a Roman temple where the goddess Ceres was worshipped, Christianized in 602 by Liuva II to house the image of Our Lady of the Prado, who is now the city's patron saint. Known as the Queen of Hermitages by Philip II, it is also called the "Sistine Chapel" of ceramics, as this vibrant art form has been displayed here in all its splendor from the 16th century to the present day.

The La Caprichosa bullring, a mecca for bullfighting, is located next to the Basilica of Prado and the Alameda Park.

It was inaugurated during the patron saint fairs of September 1890 with a historicist style typical of 19th century bullrings; on that day, six bulls from Enrique Salamanca were fought by Fernando Gómez Gallo and Antonio Arana, "Jarana".
