Aqueduct
The Aqueduct of Segovia,
typically the most recognized and famous symbol of Segovia, terminates
at the entrance of the historic section. It was built at the end of 1st
to early 2nd century AD by the Romans during their occupation of the Iberian Peninsula to bring water from the Río Frío (Cold River),
about 18 km away, to the city, requiring an elevated section in its
last 1 kilometer (0.6 mi) from the Sierra de Guadarrama to the walls of
the old town. This elevated section, largely dominating the nearby
scene, is supported by an engineering marvel of 166 arches and 120
pillars in two levels. It is made of 20,400 large, rough-hewn granite
blocks, joined without mortar or clamps. Its maximum height of 28.1 m
(100.53 ft) is found at the plaza of Azoguejo. A raised section of
stonework in the center once had an inscription. Today only the holes
for the bronze letters survive.
Alcazar Castle
The Alcázar,
or castle-palace is perched at the tip of the promontory and towers
over the countryside below. Like many fortifications in Spain, it
started off as an Arab fort. At the end of the 11th century it was
conquered by king Alfonso VI. During the Middle Ages, the Alcazar of
Segovia was the favourite residence of kings of Castile, and almost
each king added new parts to the building, transforming the original
fortress into a courtier residence and prolonging the construction of
the castle till 16th century, when King Philip II added the conical
spires and the slate roofs. A fire in 1862 destroyed part of the roofs,
but they were restored in the very same style they were built more than
300 years ago.
Cathedral
The Cathedral of Segovia stands in the city's central plaza. Constructed by architect Juan Gil de Hontanon in the late Gothic style between 1522 and 1577, it is widely considered Europe's last . The kind of is called Isabelino.
Church of Vera Cruz
The church of Vera Cruz, beyond the Alcazar and the city walls was
founded by the Knights Templar. It is built in the circular style, a
common design of the Templars, in recognition of the Temple Mount in
Jerusalem. It is currently owned and maintained by the Knights of Malta.
Owing to these famous monuments, Segovia is a very popular tourist destination, especially as a day-trip from Madrid.
