Description
"It is impossible to discuss King Henry and the city of Segovia without acknowledging the enduring bond of affection that existed between them throughout his reign." These words by historian María Asenjo perfectly summarize the unique connection that Enrique de Trastámara had with the city of the aqueduct throughout his life. During this guided walk, you will have the opportunity to revisit the figure of the monarch, starting from his palace in San Martín and concluding at the Alcázar, a fortress that became a symbol of royal power and dignity. Your journey will be enriched by the insights of Bonifacio Bartolomé Herrero, PhD in Medieval History, who works in the Archive of the Cathedral of Segovia.
