2 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeThe historic center of Cuenca is articulated from its Plaza Mayor. Irregularly, its limits are bathed in beauty, tradition and culture. Center of light and the color of the facades also shows a monumental architecture of its most emblematic buildings. The Convent of Las Petras is a huge building three blocks from the 16th century. The impressive façade of the Norman neo-Gothic style Cathedral competes in prominence with that of the Baroque town hall that stands on three semicircular arches. The square is, in short, the place where the flow of culture and beauty that surrounds the entire city starts.Catedral De Cuenca
1 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedThe Cathedral was the first building to be built after the reconquest and therefore shows all the splendor of ecclesiastical power. Begun at the end of the 12th century, it had several phases in its construction, reforms, extensions and variations that dot its style, clearly Norman Gothic, with some Romanesque reminiscences and later contributions such as Plateresque, Cistercian or Baroque.Arco de Bezudo
30 minsAdmission Ticket FreeLittle remains of what was once the impregnable Christian fortress, some fragments of wall canvas next to the entrance, a tower, two magnificent square cubes and a beautiful semicircular arch at the entrance, the so-called Arco de Bezudo. This arch dates from the 16th century, preserves a shield with a fleece and is one of the old gates of the city of Cuenca, which separated the intramural and extramural spaces. It is the narrowest point between the two sickles and from there the entrance to the city was defended from its highest part. Currently, you can access the upper part of the arch by stairs and enjoy fabulous views.Torre Mangana
15 minsAdmission Ticket FreeMangana Tower, built on the ruins of the old fortress, did not undergo any significant changes in its structure until the 20th century, when, due to its deterioration, it was rebuilt giving it a neo-Mudejar appearance, as well as an aspect typical of Italian towers. Although it is possible that its initial function was that of a defense and surveillance tower, with the passage of time it became a bell tower and a reference clock for the city.
