Aside from archaeological evidence pointing to a primitive fence from the Late Antiquity (5th century) period, which would have enclosed a small space, the wall is essentially medieval. With a perimeter of 2,516 m (encompassing an area of 33 hectares), 87 towers or towers, 9 gates and 2 gatehouses, and 2,500 merlons, Ávila's wall is the best-preserved walled enclosure in the world.

Ávila City Walls (North Section)

Highlight • Monument

Controversy is the dating of its construction. There are authors who, faithful to tradition, frame it in the last years of the 11th century; Others think that it is a work fundamentally from the second half of the 12th century - beginning of the 13th century, as are neighboring fortifications.

Basilica of San Vicente of Ávila

Highlight • Religious Site

Outside the walls, the basilica of San Vicente, built in “Caleño” granite, rises, highly conditioned by the orography, in the place where tradition indicates that Vicente, Sabina and Cristeta were martyred and buried. It is the great model of Romanesque in Ávila and its careful proportions make it a unique example of Hispanic Romanesque; Receiver of foreign influences and of the cathedral's fabric, it is at the same time a diffuser of the style in the city.
