The best running trails around Medina Del Campo

An interpretation center dedicated to Queen Isabella I (“the Catholic”), highlighting the will and codicil signed there, and her death in 1504. A 14th-century palace (possibly in the Mudéjar style), remodeled by the Catholic Monarchs, later reused as a prison or town hall, and restored in 2004 as an educational museum.

Also known as the Main Parish Church of San Antolín. The original parish dates back to 1177, founded by settlers from the north (Palencia) and dedicated to Saint Antolín. In 1480, the Catholic Monarchs obtained a papal bull from Pope Sixtus IV elevating its status to a collegiate church with a free abbey. Construction of the current church began in 1502 and continued into the 18th century, with prominent architects such as Juan Gil de Hontañón, Rodrigo Gil, and the Gutiérrez brothers. It lost its collegiate church status in 1851, becoming simply the main parish church.

This palace, built in the 13th century, is where Queen Isabella I of Castile died in November 1504, and where she signed her will days before her death. Although she died here, her body was later moved to Granada Cathedral at her express wish, where she rests alongside her husband, Ferdinand of Aragon (Ferdinand the Catholic), and her daughter, Joanna the Mad.

This Gothic-style building began construction in 1503, although, as is often the case with such complex structures, it wasn't completed until almost two centuries later. It is a relatively large church, notable for the balcony of the Virgin of the People and the clock tower. The main entrance dates from the 18th century, while the side entrance is from the 16th.

It is a historic building that stands out as one of the most emblematic cultural treasures of the city. The collegiate church is, together with the Castle of La Mota, one of the most important historical buildings in Medina del Campo. Although its main part shows characteristics of the late Gothic style, its construction is complex and covers styles from the beginning of the 16th century to the 18th century.

La Mota Castle is an impressive medieval fortress located in Medina del Campo. Built in the 14th and 15th centuries, this castle is located on a hill known as a “mota”, which allows it to dominate the town and its surroundings. The castle is famous for its reddish brick architecture, typical of the region, and has been restored to become an important tourist and educational centre. In addition to its historical value, the castle offers guided tours, underground galleries and cultural activities.

The Palacio de las Salinas Spa is an idyllic place to relax and enjoy a unique environment.
