The Plaza Mayor of Cuenca is a historic center and one of the most emblematic places in the city of Cuenca, in Castilla-La Mancha. This square is known for its Baroque architecture and its importance as a meeting point and hub of communication in the old part of the city. Main buildings: The Cathedral of Santa María and San Julián, the Cuenca City Hall, and the Convent of San Pedro. The most notable monument in Cuenca began construction at the end of the 12th century after the conquest of the city, but its core took shape in the 13th century. The naves, from the transept to the façade, date from the 14th century, and the ambulatory was transformed in the 16th century to adapt its original structure to new aesthetic trends. Its first façade also dates from this period, replaced in the 18th century by another that had to be demolished at the beginning of the 20th century, when the current Neo-Gothic façade, designed by Vicente Lampérez, was built.

Originally built by the Romans in the 3rd century AD, as part of the network of roads that connected the Empire.

Its current name comes from the fact that the image of Christ of the Blood is hidden above this horseshoe arch, in a small, usually closed chapel visible from Plaza de Zocodover. The image comes from an old brotherhood founded during the reign of Sancho III, but the chapel wasn't created until the reign of Henry IV. This unusual location follows the Arab custom of placing an oratory above some gates and arches to ensure safe travel for anyone leaving the city and crossing the gate.
