Palencia’s historic center is defined by the 14th-century Gothic Cathedral of San Antolín and the arcaded Calle Mayor. This selection highlights the city's architectural evolution, from the Romanesque origins of the Puentecillas bridge to the modernist facade of the Colegio de Villandrando. Visitors can explore the 13th-century Church of San Miguel, the Romanesque Ermita de San Juan Bautista located within the Huerta de Guadián park, and the medieval Monasterio de Santa Clara, known for its reclining Christ figure.
