Puebla de Sanabria, in Spain’s Zamora province, is a beautifully preserved medieval town perched on a hilltop at the confluence of the Tera and Castro rivers. Its narrow cobblestone streets, traditional stone houses with wooden balconies, and impressive 15th-century Castillo de los Condes de Benavente give the village a timeless character. The old quarter is rich with history, from the Romanesque church of Santa María del Azogue to the town’s defensive walls that once protected it. Surrounded by lush landscapes and near Lake Sanabria, the largest glacial lake in the Iberian Peninsula, Puebla de Sanabria offers both cultural heritage and natural beauty, making it a captivating stop in northern Spain.
