The walnut-carved choir is the highlight of the cathedral. It was designed and built by Joaquin and Alberto de Churriguera, brothers of José Benito de Churriguera, the namesake of Spain's Churrigueresque style of Baroque architecture.
This magnificent 15th century retablo towers behind the altar. 53 vibrantly painted panels depict scenes from the life of Mary and Jesus, while a 12th century gilded bronze statue of Mary gazes down the nave. Spain boasts many incredible medieval altarpieces, but this one might well be my favorite.
Cityscape as seen from the roof of the New Cathedral. Dominating the scene is the baroque style La Iglesia de la Clerecía (The Church of the Clergy), built between 1617 and 1755. Definitely worth the small entry fee.
Iconic 16th century palace, now a public library. It was built by Rodrigo Arias de Maldonado, a knight of the Order of Santiago de Compostela and a professor at the University of Salamanca. The design is of Plateresque Gothic (late Gothic architecture, Renaissance detailing) and the façade is decorated with more than 300 scallop shells, the symbol of the order of Santiago. #Architecture
Attention: All vehicles over 18 tons use the Roman bridge. Apparently that was the notice installed on the new Salamanca bridge when it opened in 1913. The Roman's knew how to (over) engineer their bridges, which is why hundreds of them still stand all over Europe. This particular bridge crosses the Tormes River along the Vía de la Plata, an historically important military and trade route in western Spain. The bridge was built in 89 and features 15 arches spanning nearly a quarter mile (356m). Some of the arches were rebuilt in 17th century after severe flooding. Today the bridge is a pedestrian walkway and is nicely illuminated at night. I guess modern day Salamancians finally figured out how to build a bridge for 18-ton trucks.
