Stroll through the centuries-old cobbled street etched with history, art, and knowledge in the Old Town of Salamanca, a World Heritage Site by UNESCO home to one of the oldest universities in the world. For more than twenty thousand years, the spectacular landmarks and the dynamic community of Salamanca have kept their vital spirit, youthfulness, and rich culture well alive throughout the long course of history: from the Roman Bridge dating before Christ, the early Middle Ages representatives of the 11th-century University of Salamanca and the 12th-century Cathedral of Santa María, the medieval Shell House, to the vibrant present-day social life hub of the Main Square.
