On our tour from West to East Europe, started in 2023 in Lisbon and extended this year to Tirana in Albania, I can say that this section was indeed one of my personal highlights on the total of over 4,000 km across Europe. Komoot used the photos I took back then to create a highlight from them. Today I am happy to provide a text for it. Enjoy the "ride" through this fantastic landscape. Thank you Europe!!

The Alcázar Gate is one of the most impressive entrances to the Ávila wall. Located to the east of the walled area, it is distinguished by its two large towers, each over 20 meters high, connected by a semicircular arch. This gate was one of the first to be built, along with the San Vicente Gate, and retains its Romanesque style.

Perhaps the most beautiful gate of all those in the wall.

Impressive gateway to the city of Ávila to the old wall. Because there is a wide plaza in the direction of the door, its grandeur can be admired from a distance.

Half a century ago, the Avila town of Las Berlanas suffered a catastrophe of hitherto unknown proportions. A flood devastated the municipality and one of its main surroundings, El Burgo, in addition to ending the lives of two people. To commemorate this tragic event, a monument has been erected that remembers the victims and the catastrophe, but also the efforts of the people of Berlin to improve themselves.

One of the two largest gates of the medieval fortress of Avila. From here you can best see the architecture of the cathedral and get to the apse.
