City: Teruel

Teruel is a city located in the south of Aragon, Spain, and capital of the province of the same name. With an approximate population of 36,700 inhabitants, it is located on a plateau 915 meters above sea level, in a mountainous environment that gives it a continental climate with cold winters and hot summers. Teruel stands out for its exceptional Mudejar heritage, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, which reflects the historical coexistence between Christian, Muslim and Jewish cultures. The city is famous for the legend of the Lovers of Teruel, a deep-rooted cultural and tourist symbol. Its historic center preserves medieval walls, towers and buildings, as well as a notable modernist complex. Teruel has been a strategic center since the Middle Ages, founded in 1171 to protect the Christian border against the Muslims. Currently, it combines its historical wealth with modern urban development, being a cultural and tourist reference in Aragon, with an economy based on tourism, agriculture and services.
