The Alcázar of Toro is a historic fortification located in the town of Toro (Zamora, Castile and León), with great heritage and scenic value. It was built in the 10th century during the Christian repopulation, as part of the defensive system against Muslim incursions. It was reinforced in subsequent centuries, especially in the Middle Ages, when Toro acquired strategic importance in the Kingdom of León and later in Castile. It played a prominent role in the War of the Castilian Succession (1475), in the famous Battle of Toro between supporters of Isabella I of Castile and Joanna la Beltraneja.

The inspiration for the Collegiate Church came from the Cathedral of Zamora, and its design also influenced other buildings, such as the Old Cathedral of Salamanca. Construction began in the 12th century under the auspices of the kings of León. It is one of the most characteristic examples of Romanesque in its transitional phase. The works extended over an unusually long period, from the last third of the 12th century to the middle of the 13th. The collegiate church was built in two stages: the first included the side portals, walls and layouts, while the second focused on the roof and a dome with attached towers. If you ever have the opportunity to visit Toro, don't miss the opportunity to explore this wonderful collegiate church. It is a true historical treasure! 🌟

The Clock Tower, also known as the Clock Arch, is located in the walled area of Toro, in the province of Zamora, Spain. Its construction began in 1719 during the reign of Philip V and was completed nineteen years later. The design is attributed to architect Joaquín Churriguera. The tower is located above the old Market Gate, which dates back to the 15th century and surrounded the first walled area of the city. Its height allows it to be seen from any point in Toro. If you ever visit Toro, don't miss the opportunity to admire this historic tower and its clock. It is a true symbol of the city! 🕰️🌟

Beautiful town that looks towards the waters of the Río Valderaduey and that is, is integrated into the ZEPA Penillanuras-Campos, a protected area for birds and where it is common to see them!

In the center of Valdunquillo we find this ancient palace that combines colored walls with the color of the stones that used to make these constructions. However, the town is also beautiful to see with the Convento de la Merced.

The Plaza Mayor has one of the most important streets in Toro, the Puerta del Mercado. The city gate and clock tower are across the street.

View of the 12th century castle that dominates the landscape and the trade route between the ancient kingdoms of Castilla y León. The defensive castle of Tordehumos, located on top of a hill, is full of history.

Medina de Rioseco is known as the seat of the Admiralty of Castilla, the city has a rich history that goes back to the Vacceos, Celts, Romans. Located next to the sequillo river, I recommend you tour the town by bike and visit the Church of Santiago Apóstol.
