Ourense's Plaza Mayor is one of the most emblematic spaces in the historic center: It's a porticoed square with a slight incline, making it unique in Galicia. The slope is used to create a very photogenic perspective. Since the Middle Ages, it has been the city's administrative and social center. Markets, public events, and neighborhood meetings were held here. Notable buildings: City Hall: a 19th-century neoclassical building with an elegant façade and balconies. Palaces and noble houses: several properties with heraldic shields and typical Galician galleries.

They are located in the historic center of Ourense, on Rúa das Burgas / Praza das Burgas, next to the Barbaña River. They are perfectly integrated into the urban environment, near the Cathedral and the Roman Bridge. Explored since Roman times, these waters were the origin of the city (Aquis Auriensis), and the remains include a 1st-century AD pool-sanctuary and votive stones dedicated to an indigenous deity. The water flows at approximately 64–68°C, with a flow rate of about 300 liters per minute. Rich in minerals such as metasilicates, fluoride, lithium, bicarbonate, and sodium, they are recommended for pruritic skin conditions and rheumatism. Recent studies support their beneficial effect on acne after washing with thermal water.

It spans the Miño River, linking the historic center of Ourense with the A Ponte neighborhood. It was built in the 1st century AD as a branch of the Via Nova (Via XVIII), connecting Bracara Augusta (Braga) with Asturica Augusta (Astorga). Only traces of the original Roman phase remain, such as rusticated stonework at the ends near the banks. It suffered damage during the Middle Ages; in 1228, under Bishop Lorenzo and with the support of Ferdinand III, it was rebuilt with pointed arches and renovated approaches. Until the 17th century, the bridge repeatedly collapsed. The final work was directed by Melchor de Velasco Agüero around 1660, establishing its current appearance.

The Roman bridge in Ourense, known as Ponte Vella or Puente Mayor, over the Miño River, was built in the 1st century AD as part of a branch of the Via Nova (Eighteenth Century). According to tradition, it dates back to the time of Trajan, although its construction characteristics place it close to the time of Augustus. Of that first bridge, only a few cushioned ashlars from the bases remain, as silent witnesses of the past.
