University sights in Salamanca

  1. A

    Universidad Civil

    The visual feast of the entrance facade to Salamanca’s university is a tapestry in sandstone, bursting with images of mythical heroes, religious scenes and coats of arms. It’s dominated in the centre by busts of Fernando and Isabel. It’s the elusive frog that draws the crowds, but don’t let that distract you from the overall magnificence.
