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.

It spans the Duero River in Zamora (Castilla y León), connecting Avenida de Portugal (Pinilla neighborhood) with Calle de Salamanca in the city. The project began in 1882, with construction starting in 1892, under the direction of engineer Prudencio Guadalajara, to alleviate the overloading of the old Stone Bridge. Inaugurated in 1900, it represented a significant improvement in handling the growing traffic in the city. It was designed in steel, using a metal lattice structure of the St. Andrew's Cross type, typical of the late 19th century.

The best thing about the Puente de los Poetas is the panoramic view of the entire old town of Zamora, dominated by the tower and dome of the Cathedral, in front of the waters of the Duero River and, in the background, the Romanesque Bridge.

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! 🌟

Along with the town of Villalube, there is also the town of Gallegos del Pan, both of which are close by the Arroyo de las Fuenticas.

Pinilla de Toro is a locality that is on the border with Valladolid and that, in addition, at the entrance of the town you can see the Iglesia de San Martín, which can be seen from afar.
