The best walks and hikes around Velilla

Declared a Site of Cultural Interest (BIC) on December 7, 1983, this church is located in the heart of Tordesillas (Valladolid), one of the town's most iconic landmarks and the largest in the entire municipality. It is believed to have been built on the site of the former Tordesillas mosque. The main construction took place between the 16th and 17th centuries, with additions continuing into the 18th century. The church combines Gothic elements (the apse and the lower sections of the tower) with Neoclassical renovations inspired by El Escorial. Today, it serves as the headquarters for several Holy Week brotherhoods, housing processional floats such as the Virgin of Solitude and the Christ of Mercy.

We are looking at a restored building dating from the 16th and 17th centuries, occupied by the Carmelites, and which is now used as an auditorium.

In the inner courtyard of the Casas del Tratado we find an area dedicated to the exhibition of models of emblematic buildings of Tordesillas, the province as well as Valladolid, where we can appreciate the proportions and beauty of these buildings.

This is where the famous Treaty of Tordesillas was signed. In this building, which is actually the combination of two palaces, the treaty was signed on June 7, 1494, between Castile and Portugal, establishing the boundary between the territories of the New World that would belong to Castile and Portugal. One of the palaces is older, dating from the late 15th century, and it was precisely in this palace that the agreement or treaty was signed.

This church-museum houses a large part of the artwork that once existed in the original church, most notably the tomb of the Alderete family, an important family in the city. This church was built on the site of another dating back to the 10th century and, after several modifications, was completed in 1644 by the architect Gil de Reynalto.

The Plaza Mayor of Tordesillas was built in the 17th century as a perfect square, accessible from four streets. It features arcades, and the houses are two stories high, leaving space on the ground floor for shops, bars, and restaurants. The facades have large windows and balconies, ideally designed for viewing the various performances that have taken place there throughout history. Among other important buildings, the Town Hall is located in the plaza.

This is an unequivocal sign of the city's heritage conservation, where they are concerned with preserving vestiges of the past to keep them in the present.
