Saldaña, Palencia

Local nameSaldaña
LocationCastile and León, Spain

Saldaña is the principal town of the fertile plains of the province of Palencia in the autonomous community of Castile and León, Spain, and may be the town of "Eldana" mentioned by the historian Ptolemy as being conquered by the Roman Empire.

The town's connection to the Roman Era is reflected in the beautiful remains of a villa attributed to the emperor Theodosius I.

From the 10th to the 11th century, Saldaña was the seat of a family of powerful counts, the Banu Gómez. The medieval counts of Saldaña figure in local history and literature.
