What To Expect
Alcazar of Segovia
The Alcázar de Segovia, with its silhouette of a tale castle, is one of the most emblematic monuments in Spain. Its interior offers a tour of history: the Throne Room and the Kings Room, decorated with impressive Mudéjar cofferings and portraits of monarchs; the Arms Room, which preserves armor and military pieces; and the Chapel, of great Gothic sobriety. The Alcazar was a royal palace, fortress and prison, and still retains that air of medieval grandeur.
Cattedrale Di Segovia
Known as the Lady of the Cathedrals, it is a jewel of late Gothic. Its monumental facade gives way to a bright interior, with high vaults and elegant stained glass windows that flood the naves with color. Highlights include the Main Altarpiece, a Renaissance work of great wealth, and the chapels, each with unique artistic details. The cloister, of medieval origin, offers a gathering space full of history. Climbing the tower allows you to enjoy a spectacular panorama of the city and its surroundings. An essential place to understand the greatness of Segovia.
