Description
The deep affection that King Henry IV had for Segovia led to significant renovations, expansions, and decorative enhancements at the Alcázar during his reign. The result was a fortress admired by all who visited. In 1466, Baron of Rosmithal, a nobleman of Central European origin, marveled at its beauty, stating: "We did not see in Spain a more beautiful Alcázar than this one, nor one that had so many riches of gold, silver, and jewels." Would you like to explore it? Join this exclusive experience led by Antonio Ruiz Hernando, PhD in History from the Complutense University of Madrid.
