We will start the tour by going into Calle Mayor, the most commercial street in the city and where the Plateresco style City Hall is located.
The 14th-century prison tower, which was the clock tower of the town and where the sculpture of the first king of Aragon Ramiro I is located. Here we will discover the why it is here, curiosities and anecdotes, as well as its history.
This is where the old market of the city was located. All the pilgrims on the way to Santiago stopped here. At this stop we will talk about how these markets worked and the laws that governed them.
