The Iron Bridge in Coria is a beautiful civil work of metal architecture and nineteenth-century modernist design. It was built by the Asturian engineers D. Salvador and D. Próspero Ardura. The bridge stands over the Alagón River, connecting both banks in the City of Coria. Its total length is 178.30 meters, and its deck has a width of 7.78 meters, with a two-way road flanked by two sidewalks.

The Medieval Bridge of Coria is a historical structure that is located next to the main façade of the Monastery of San Juan Bautista or Corias. Its construction had the objective of connecting the monastery with the town of Corias. Although its foundations are believed to be of Roman origin, the bridge was rebuilt in 1571, as indicated by an inscription preserved on one of the stones of its parapet.

Founded before the Romans occupied the Iberian Peninsula, Coria was known as Cauria or Caurus. The Romans gave it its current Latin name, CAVRIUM. Later, he was granted Roman citizenship. In the Visigothic era, the Diocese of Coria was created, which maintained Coria as an episcopal see until the 20th century. After the Reconquista, Coria became the capital of a manor to which towns that still bear the name of Coria belonged, such as Guijo de Coria or Casillas de Coria.

Rincón del Obispo is a small town on the outskirts of Coria. It was founded between 1960 and 1968. Despite being so recently founded, there is a great archaeological site that has a much longer history. There are many dilapidated buildings that give it a very colonial air.

Coria is a small city with a population of 12,500 inhabitants. It was established before Roman times and has many historical sites such as the castle, the Episcopal Palace, the Stone Bridge and the Cathedral.

The old bridge (Puente renaissance) over the Alagón valley has no water running under it. It seems that the river waters were diverted to the south. The view from the bridge over the old city is very dramatic.

Torrejoncillo is a small town in the Valle de Alagón region. The typical narrow streets lead to the Plaza Mayor in the center of town, where the Town Hall and the Church of San Andrés Apóstol are the most outstanding monuments. The city is famous for its handicrafts and festivals.
