Ciudad-Rodrigo

Ciudad Rodrigo is a small cathedral city in the province of Salamanca, western Spain, perched on a rocky rise along the River Águeda. With a population of roughly 12,900, it serves as a judicial district seat and offers a quiet, historic atmosphere. The site has been occupied since the Neolithic Age and is historically significant as a key border fortress, notably enduring a 10-day siege by the Duke of Wellington. For frequent-flyer hotel travelers, the city provides a serene base to explore ancient Celtic roots and well-preserved heritage without the crowds of larger Spanish cities.
