Let Zaragoza seduce you!
Enjoy the hospitality and open mind of this bimillenary city, in which Iberians, Romans, Muslims, Jewish and Christians left an important legacy:
- Pilar Plaza and surroundings
In one of the biggest pedestrian places in Europe, stands Our-Lay-of-the Pilar Basilica, a Baroque jewel and one of the World’s greatest Marian pilgrimage.
- The Seo church and Mudejar Art
Build upon the Great Mosque of the ancient Muslim city, this church is a peculiar mix of styles, from Romanesque to Neoclassic. But what really makes this building special is the presence of Aragonese Mudejar Art elements (particularly one of the exterior walls), which were designated as “World Heritage” by UNESCO. It also shelters the Museum of Tapestry.
- The Aljaferia Palace
This is one of the most important monuments of the Spanish Muslim architecture. Erected in the 11th century, this magnificent building was the fortress of the monarchs of the Muslim Saraqusta in the moment of its apogee, then the palace of the Catholics Kings until the 16th century. It was a prison during the Inquisition, a military fort in the 18th century, and, after its restoration fifty years ago, it is currently the seat of the Aragonese Parliament (« las Cortes »). As a curiosity, Guiseppe Verdi located the action of its famous opera “Il Trovatore” in the Aljaferia, more precisely in one of its towers (la « Torre del Trovador »).
