A sleepy little town rich in history
... Of course it has the fortress wall, a river, an old Roman bridge, but its claim to fame is the fact that finally in 1476 the Catholic Monarchs finally took control of Toro (Toledo) assuring them the throne and probably paving the way for the future of Spain.
