Plaza del Trigo

One of the most beautiful squares in Castile, where the medieval village breathes.

The story

Also known as Plaza del Mercado or Plaza de Don Bruno Pascual Ruilópez, it is the village's central square and one of the most beautiful in Castile. Its traditional architecture brings together whitewashed facades, exposed beams and columns, and arcades.

From it run the streets Doctor Layna Serrano, Cervantes and San Pedro, and it connects with the Plaza de España through the Arrebatacapas Arch.
