Alcalá de Henares

Alcalá de Henares

Alcalá is a very special city for several reasons: about 2 kilometers from its monumental center are the remains of the ancient Complutum Romanam, it was the town chosen by Cardinal Cisneros to build the first university city and in the Church of Santa María la Mayor was baptized in 1547 Miguel de Cervantes, among other things.

But in addition, the first interview between Christopher Columbus and Isabel la Católica took place on the walls of the Archbishop’s Palace to explain in detail what their trip to the Indies would be like.
