is the central point of this nerve city, which was considered villa until 1929. With the name of Santa Maria is already from the fourteenth century (there are documents that confirm it.) Of course also in the current or street level. And precisely called for being in it as part of their environment and as an outstanding monument, the church called Santa Maria del Quicksilver, BIC declared since 1931.
During the Second Republic was called the Place d'Luis de Serve in memory of this Republican journalist murdered in 1935. And in 1936 was renamed Plaza de Calvo Sotelo, also in memory of who was Conservative MP and royalist party leader, murdered in July of this year.
When referring to the Church of Santa Maria want to see the importance of this monument. But there were other buildings in the environment that helped to give the place an appearance of more age and beauty. Images we show tell us about it and the lifestyle and customs in the past.
Both the square and the church are to the west of the city, at the end of La Rua. But apart from this road are several more that come together in this place and if we stick to the street plan approved in 2004 are as follows: Calle de los Herreros, Francos street, street of Santo Domingo, Calle Jesús García Muñoz. And on the north side joins the Plaza de la Madera.
as a hub and confluence of streets, for her many people pass daily to work and fun are as close to banks, shops, bars and cafes. And walk, the way to the gardens of La Mota or elsewhere.
All the fame and beauty of the place will be given by the existence of the aforementioned church, a church that continues to be an important milestone in the town. Many people, especially strangers who come to the plaza from the street La Rua, the Smiths, Santo Domingo and the Franks, show a great surprise and admiration at the sight of the monument apses. Last but not least, to see the south gate and the Lamb, if they do it from the streets or Jesus Santo Domingo García Muñoz. Also on the door north, accessed from the Place de la Madera.
Effectively what you see is the header with five apses and tower. The apses are of decreasing size from the center outwards. In the central apse, four columns are based on the ground and reach the ledge dividing it into three blocks each of which has a window. The other four divisions are not only have a window. Don very simple fascia divided into three horizontal zones three central apse and one fascia divided into two areas side apses.
The windows are splayed. The central apse are three archivolts. Those of the side apses, which are not identical nor in form or size, are layered one on each side column. In an older image is a window with bars in the central apse.
The South Gate or midday is the most beautiful of all the sculptural decoration you have. Columns, capitals, decorated archivolts especially the eardrum, whose main theme is the Agnus Dei or Lamb mystic, holding the cross with one of his legs in a circle. He is surrounded by four angels funeral.
On the north side of the church there is another door, not as important as the previous one, but is also decorated with columns and capitals vegetables.
In 2008 we completed a new restoration of the monument by the Heritage Foundation and the Junta de Castilla y León, with the assistance of the City and Parish, and since then has renovated, outside the apse, transept and north side, inside the sacristy and the important plasterwork ceiling. This has contributed to embellish more and produce even more admiration.
For other buildings around and around the square, although they were of brick, highlighted by the type of construction and decoration. Some were destroyed long ago, giving way to new construction, rather than those that existed. An example is the houses of the Ajero Bobillo, on the west side, and the Central Bank in the east. But others in the square little or no resemblance, either in height or the type of construction and decoration as they were built, as seen in the images. All this leads us to think about the need to value and respect due the urban and architectural heritage.
Over the years, the square has also been undergoing changes and even changes in your furniture, because in the middle of it there was a news stand in the same place where previously there was a lamppost. There are also pictures of the celebration of markets for animals, especially donkeys and mules.
was always the place of meeting space and public gatherings, political and not political. And cultural events, as at present concerts that are held primarily in the summer months. And sitting on the benches installed recently, many people, young and old, spend their time in animated chats.
Today the plaza is still the most important landmark of the city and her many people pass daily. But too many cars, creating some disorder and confusion among the public and passers by. Also occurs because the cars, not just continually pass through the square, but there remain parked for much of the day and night, preventing the passage and the promenade of the citizens, and authorized or emergency vehicles. And if this situation bothers the neighbors, much to outsiders coming to town and are approaching the square to visit the most important monument, the church of Santa Maria del Quicksilver. It is time to regulate the traffic and take the situation seriously, to show and prove to everyone, neighbors or neighbors who live in a city, although small, in which citizens are respected and also heritage.
