Palencia, like other Castilian cities, treasures a rich historical and artistic heritage that bears witness to the importance and vitality it achieved in the past. It has important monuments, among which stand out the Cathedral (nicknamed 'The Unknown Beauty', now 'The Recognised Beauty', and one of the largest in Spain); the Cristo del Otero (the tallest in Spain and considered one of the most remarkable sculptural representations of Jesus in the world) and several National Monuments. The Puentecillas Bridge, the Church of San Francisco and the Monastery of Las Claras are other examples of a rich and diverse legacy that invites us to immerse ourselves in a fascinating history.
