Torreón de la Zuda
Torreón de La Zuda
A medieval tower in the northwest corner of the old town. The ground floor houses the tourist information centre, and the top-floor viewing platform looks out over the Basilica of Our Lady of the Pillar.
The Torreón de la Zuda was originally part of the governor's palace from the Islamic period. The tower standing today is a brick structure rebuilt in later centuries, beside the Roman walls. The ground floor houses the city's tourist information centre, where you can pick up maps and buy sightseeing bus tickets. Climb to the top-floor viewing platform, which is free or charges a nominal fee, for a close-up view of the dome of the Basilica of Our Lady of the Pillar and the Ebro River.
