Capital the Zamora province Castile-León, the city of Zamora in northwestern Spain

 “Let the world know what you live for...not what you fall for!”― John Paul Warren =================================================== (in Castile and León, Spain) Capital the Zamora province Castile-León, the city of Zamora in northwestern Spain, is found along the northern bank of the Duero River, northwest of Madrid. The city occupies a rocky height overlooking the Duero, just below its confluence with the Valderaduey River. In the early period of the Reconquest (8th–11th century), this strategically important city was passed between Christian and Moorish rule several times. It finally became subject to Alfonso VI of León and Castile in 1073. In the 15th century it was held for a time by the Portuguese supporters of Princess Juana, claimant to the Castilian throne, but was later surrendered to Ferdinand II (the Catholic) in 1475. Today, Zamora is a mid-size city that is known for its more than 20 Romanesque churches, its celebration of the Catholic Holy Week, and its Modernist buildings. Among food and wine connoisseurs, Zamora is also known for its excellent wine and its gourmet cuisine. Outstanding landmarks include a fine 14th-century bridge across the Duero; the citadel of Zamora, dating from the 8th century; and the Romanesque cathedral, one of four 12th-century churches.
