Je l'ai déjà été !Explora el fascinante pasado de Segovia y descubre cómo se ha desarrollado a lo largo de los siglos.
Of Celtiberian origin, it was conquered by the Romans, who left their most enduring mark and the symbol of the city: the Aqueduct, one of the best preserved works of Roman civil engineering in the world, probably built at the end of the 1st century or the beginning of the 2nd century AD.
After a period of decline, the city resurfaces in the Middle Ages. It becomes the residence of the Trastámara court and an important center of the drapery industry. Its peak moment comes in 1474, when Isabel la Católica is proclaimed Queen of Castile in the church of San Miguel. The Alcázar became one of his favorite residences and the city prospered, allowing the construction of its imposing Gothic Cathedral in the 16th century.
Like Toledo, it lost political weight when the capital moved to Madrid. This fact, added to the crisis of the textile industry, led to a decline that paradoxically helped preserve its medieval and Renaissance structure. Rediscovered by romantic travelers in the 19th century, in 1985 UNESCO declared the old city of Segovia and its Aqueduct as a World Heritage Site, consolidating it as a top tourist destination.
