Segovia's Absolute Essentials

Segovia showcases centuries of Spanish history through its diverse architectural landmarks. The city is defined by the massive Roman Aqueduct, built without mortar, and the Alcázar, a medieval fortress that served as a royal residence. The skyline is dominated by the late Gothic Cathedral of Our Lady of the Assumption. Beyond these icons, the city features unique structures like the diamond-tipped Casa de los Picos, the Romanesque Iglesia de San Martín, and the circular Iglesia de la Vera Cruz, originally associated with the Knights Templar.
