Facts and practical information

The wall of Astorga surrounds the old town of the city of Astorga in the province of León, in Spain. The ancient Roman city of Asturica Augusta, founded in the time of Augustus on the occasion of the Cantabrian Wars, was endowed with a first defensive wall which had an ephemeral life because at the end of the 1st century it was demolished.

A second wall was built in the third or fourth century, being the wall visible in the current enclosure, although with numerous reforms and restorations carried out since medieval times. With a length of more than 2 km, and circumventing the hill on which the city sits, is one of the most outstanding monuments of the capital of Maragata.
