The Solar del Cid is a monument in Burgos, built in 1784 by the artist José Cortés. It marks the spot where Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar, also known as El Cid Campeador, is traditionally said to have had his home. Although there is no historical evidence that this was true, the legend did exist and the monument was built to cherish his memory. The monument consists of three monoliths of stone from Hontoria de la Cantera, with the coat of arms of El Cid in the center, and the coats of arms of Burgos and the Monastery of San Pedro de Cardeña on the sides.

It all began in 1080, when Alfonso VI, King of the old Kingdom of Castile, promoted the construction of a Romanesque-style cathedral in the city of Burgos: the Church of Santa María de Burgos. In 1219, a very important ceremony for the Kingdom of Castile took place in this church: the wedding of the then King of Castile, Ferdinand III, with the Germanic princess Beatrice of Swabia.
