The 39 best places to go out in Segovia

Beautiful castle. Be aware the tower steps are steep, uneven and claustrophobic. Views are amazing! We even saw a rainbow in the sky. Lots of armor, architectural beauty, a garden maze and the remains of a drawbridge. Castle is surrounded by park like setting and lots of flower gardens!

My husband and I visited the Alcazar on a Thursday in late March. It was a little chilly, but that was mainly the elevation difference from Madrid. We had booked an 11am audio tour, but our train got in pretty early and we were able to get into the Alcazar early as well, which was great and we nearly had the place to ourselves. There are signs in many languages pointing you toward the Alcazar from Segovia town center, so it's hard to miss and a nice walk. It's a wonderful castle and the audio tour does a great job of enumerating the areas, and the sites you're looking at. From the moat to the armory, great hall, and many outside areas. We got a lot of great history and a lot of the designs reminded me of the Alhambra, of course. An unexpected delight was the gift shop.There I was able to get an English language book on Isabella of Castille, which had I looked for unsuccessfully in multiple Madrid bookshops. We also got a lovely cloth castle ornament. I do wish we had been able to go down the hill to see the ship-like cliffside view of the Alcazar from that lower angle. But our knees hurt from nearly two weeks of walking around Spain.

The Alcázar of Segovia looks like something straight out of a fairytale. Its distinctive ship-like shape perched high on a rocky hill makes it one of the most beautiful castles in Spain. Originally built as a fortress in the 12th century, it later became a royal palace for the Castilian monarchs, a military academy, and even served as inspiration for Walt Disney’s Cinderella Castle. Walking through the Alcázar feels like stepping back in time. The Hall of Kings (Sala de los Reyes) is breathtaking with its detailed ceilings and portraits of Castilian rulers. The Throne Room, the armory, and the chapel each tell a different story from Spain’s royal past. Everything inside is remarkably well preserved. Climbing the Tower of John II is the highlight of the visit. The view over Segovia, the cathedral, and the surrounding plains is absolutely stunning.

It's best to get tickets early for the fortress and tower. In warmer months, the top of the tower is very warm. Overall it's a wonderful tour. The Artillery Museum is interesting but no English signage. But the audio guide for the palace is worth it. The vistas from the fortress were impressive. There's a cafe down in the old Laboratories building outside the main gate. This is where your buy tickets.

Awesome castle to see. There are great views all around. Great and well preserved history in the castle. Oh, and dont miss walking up the castle tower to the top. Beautiful!

Impressive Disney-like castle (Disney was inspired by it). I didn’t get a chance to visit the installations inside but the views and architecture outside are impressive. It’s also In Great condition. If you get a chance, see the back part, less visited and not least of impressive.

Not a great deal to see inside as Royal Palaces go but the building is very photogenic and there is a nice (if a little bit chaotic) cafe with a beautiful garden seating area in which to enjoy your coffee and pastry. Well worth a visit.

It was built as a fortress in the late 15th century by Don Pedro López de Ayala. It is called the House with Peak wall because of its granite exterior wall decorated with 617 pyramid shapes. The Renaissance Terrace is also famous. It is currently the headquarters of the Segovia School of Art and Design.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Casa de los Picos – Segovia One of the most unique buildings I’ve seen in Spain — and one that immediately caught my eye as an architect and developer. The Casa de los Picos, built in the 15th century, is famous for its striking granite façade, where each stone block is carved into a pyramid-shaped point (“picos”). It was originally the palace of the De la Hoz family, one of Segovia’s most important noble families. Legend has it that the spiked façade was designed not just for beauty but also as a symbol of strength and prestige — a way to stand out among the city’s wealthy households. Over time, the building became a landmark of Segovia and is now carefully preserved as part of the city’s architectural heritage. Today it houses the Segovia School of Arts and often features exhibitions, ensuring it remains alive and part of the community. What I love most is the creativity of the façade — taking a simple material like granite and turning it into something bold, textured, and unforgettable. It’s inspiring to see how historical architects played with light, depth, and geometry centuries ago, and it gives me new ideas for my own projects. Definitely worth a stop when exploring Segovia — not just for the history, but for the inspiration it leaves behind.

Interesting building with weird wall decoration.

Unique building that stands out in the small alley of Toledo..

Nice, but not that special

Unique, but not super impressive

Famous for its tiles design

Nice visit but be advised that the backdrop to the alter is under repair and has a printed cloth covering all of it. See the photo. The very pleasant guide said that hopefully it will be finished around February 2025.

Tours only possible with a Spanish-speaking guide. Knowledge of Italian at least a little and kindness of the guide, who for me spoke more clearly, helped a lot in understanding :) It was worth visiting this place, it is amazing. To the guide - thank you very much! You are a wonderful man, with great knowledge and passion.

A castle.. Paintings... Statues...decorated cilings... Sacred altars.. Artilleries.. And Towers with 152 Steps.. It's worth the entrance Fee!! Recommended!!

Indescribably beautiful! Fantastic guide as well! Highly recommended

Missed the chants but great visit

Place to meditate and get closer to God.

Very nice

Amazing history, culture and charm. Great cathedrals. A castle and Rubens paintings! Oh and the food, people and vibe are great too. Worth the trip from Madrid. Easy day out.

The old city of Segovia was settled by the Romans 2000 years ago. Their major contribution which still exists in its original form is the aqueduct. This is the most amazing piece of engineering and enabled the expansion of the city providing it with fresh water from the mountains. It extends for 17 kilometers and much of it is underground. There is a staircase you can climb to be at the top and it is truly spectacular. The city itself is charming.

Seeing the Aqueduct of Segovia in person is just amazing. Honestly, pictures don't do it justice at all. When you stand there and see the scale of it, and think about how old it is and that it's still standing, it's just incredible. It's so well preserved and right in the middle of everything. We spent ages just walking around it and admiring the construction. It's a true masterpiece of Roman engineering and an absolute must-see. We were completely blown away. 5 stars, easily.

The Aqueduct of Segovia is one of the most impressive ancient structures I have ever seen. Built by the Romans around the first century AD, it stands as a masterpiece of engineering and endurance. The fact that it was constructed without any mortar, using only perfectly cut granite blocks, makes it even more incredible. Standing beneath the aqueduct, you can truly appreciate its scale and precision. It stretches across the city with more than 160 arches and reaches almost 30 meters high at its tallest point. It once carried water from the mountains over 15 kilometers away to supply Segovia, and parts of it continued to function for centuries. It is remarkable how well preserved it remains today, blending seamlessly with the modern city around it. The surrounding plaza is lively, filled with cafes and shops, and offers perfect views for photos both day and night.

Absolutely spectacular must-see Roman aqueduct. Photos cannot do it justice. Reasonably easy to get to. There is a high speed Renfe train station a few miles out of town and a regular bus service that runs directly to the aqueduct from the station. Segovia itself has plenty of other sites to visit and I spent all day here.

Segovia is truly a wonderful destination for travel. There are so many ancient buildings, churches, and castles. Of course, we visited the aqueduct, which is the main attraction, but the Alcázar Castle is also incredibly interesting. We also visited the Mint, which was fascinating, and we spent three days strolling around the city, exploring many cozy cafés with delicious food. We had a fantastic time with family and friends, and I highly recommend it to everyone!

Wow Wow Wow! Beautiful Aquaduct. Romans built it without any cement or binding but simply by piling up one stone on top of the other with such precision and geometry. Really amazing. One of the best roman Aquaducts and well preserved

We made a reservation the day before visiting, and went on a Monday night. Jose Maria's is a beautiful and good sized venue. Great atmosphere. The waiter's detected my struggles with speaking Spanish and gave us English menus and conversed with us without issue. Staff were very friendly. We ordered a soup dish (1 portion) and said we would share it. They kindly split it into two bowls. The main dish was the suckling pig. The waiter brought it out and theatrically carved it jnto six portions using a dinner plate to carve it. The dish tasted amazing. Suckling pig is a specialty in this region of Spain, and Jose Maria's serve and amazing dish. I'd go back and highly recommend it to other visitors.

Excellent food and service, recommended by so many locals and friends. The suckling pig was fantastic and the little show that precedes it with the cutting up of the meal was entertaining. Service was really exceptional and the food was very, very good. Your wait for the suckling pig may take longer than you expect as they roast one pig for a few tables in case you ordered less than a whole pig. Each portion per person costs about €32, so a whole pig costs €128. Its a bit of a walk from the town center but we'll worth the visit. Book in advance.

Very traditional place to come and try the famous "cochinillo" dish in Spain. The place is very well decorated with a combination of modern and traditional traits. The service was very tentative and the food itself was very tasty. We had to try the cochinillo and it did not disappoint. We did not have a reservation but a table was made available for us within about 15min. We got a drink at the bar while waiting. The overall experience is worth it with friendly staff and good food and great atmosphere. Price wise, its more expensive than other places but given the quality of what is being served, it is worth it. Highly recommended.

Outstanding meal at Restaurante José María in Segovia! We had dined at Sobrino de Botín in Madrid and there is no denying that this restaurant is far superior in quality of food, wine and experience. The service is impeccable and personal. The house wine is delicious as is the suckling pig and all other foods we ordered. The dining room is spacious and seating relaxed and not cramped. Watching the suckling pig being cut and served using plates, not knives was incredible to witness. The meat was so tender! We purchased extra bottles of wine to bring back to Madrid, it was so good. Our servers were kind and patient with our inability to speak much Spanish. Thank you. Highly recommend reserving a table.

After taking some photographs at the aqueduct then walking towards the cathedral, we stumbled upon this restaurant which was very convenient when you’re tired and hungry from all the walk. The interior had good heating so be ready to remove that extra layer of sweater or coat you wore! The staff were friendly. They had a wooden high chair for babies and toddlers. The star of the show was the Cochinillo. The skin was crispy while the meat was tender. You need to dip it to juices when it was cooked to add some saltiness. There were no pungent taste so that piglet must had a good life! All in all a great experience as I’ve heard that Segovia was the home of the original cochinillo. PS. If you have babies, they’ll gift them a little souvenir which is the icing on the cake

One of the best restaurants in Segovia for sure! Everything we had was amazing, particularly the cochinillo asado and the ponche segoviano. The service is super friendly, the owner of the restaurant Rocío actually comes around the tables to check that you've enjoyed your meal, very nice. I will definitely recommend to friends!

José María is a must-visit in Segovia! The famous cochinillo was perfectly cooked — tender and flavorful. Our server Paco provided excellent service, attentive and very knowledgeable offering great recommendations and making us feel very welcome. Outstanding food and hospitality all around!

Really excellent, worth the 3 euros entrance fee. Climb the tower for great views. It’s very tight in the stairs and claustrophobic but it does warn if this bothers you. Interesting leaflet provided on entry with historical notes. Great walk from the Alcazar, steep stairs but well worth the effort. Follow the river for magnificent views of the Alcazar.

Looks interesting from the outside. Unfortunately, it turned out to be closed on Tuesday afternoon when we arrived after a hot walk. The hours only seem to be published on the door - see photo.

Our walk led us out of the Alcazar grounds and then down a very steep, wooded hill before crossing the river and climbing the other side to the Iglesia de la Vera Cruz. This is a beautiful 13th century church, possibly Templar in origin but now owned by the Sovereign Order of Malta, descendents of the Hospitallers. The church is twelve sided with an attached belltower and originally held a fragment of the True Cross. Entry was €3 and the interior was plain other than a couple of paintings including an altar screen (I think). We climbed the bell tower, which had a very worn and very narrow set of spiral stairs, to enjoy the vista of the Alcazar at the top of the hill before leaving to continue our walk.

Small but incredibly fascinating as a piece of history plus a great view from the tower even if the stairs are very very narrow plus it’s cash only entry

Come here at sunset! I was on a wine tour and our driver stopped us here to take in the sites and see the town from the church and the views were absolutely breathtaking at twilight.

Wonderful church; however after making my way to it in the scorching heat it was only to be seen from outside . I do not know if it’s accessible

A beautiful little church. Originally of the templars and belonging to the Maltese Knights today. Best view of the Alcázar from here.

Tickets required but not really needed. Go through the Puerta down the Plazuela del Socorro and see the Puerta. View up there not that much.

Nice Gate free to see but also the start point for walk around the park below .

I saw two gates to the city during my treks around the walls of Segovia. Puerta de San Andrés was the more dramatic. It also happens to be the one that you will most likely see because of its location not far from Plaza Mayor or La Judería, closer to the main tourist attractions. Worth the detour.

Puerta de San Andrés (San Andrés Gate) also known as Arco del Socorro, the most monumental of the three that have been preserved and in which the Interpretation Center of the Wall has been installed, where visitors will know their history first-hand. In addition, here we can access the adarve, from where there are wonderful views of this side of the city; In it, a series of explanatory panels have been placed in which we are told about what we can see from the point where each of them is located, as well as part of the history of that area. Open on the south side of the wall, the first time that the Puerta de San Andrés appears documented is in the year 1120, although the one we see today is due to the works carried out at the end of the 15th century, or the beginning of the 16th , and practically to the present. Through it one entered the aljama9 of Segovia from the tanneries10 and orchards of the Valle del Clamores, and from the suburbs. The arch has a tower on each side, which are in turn attached to the wall, one of them polygonal and the other square; both have preserved the battlements and the merlones11 of Mudejar style. Also, it was the old guardhouse, where the Interpretation Center mentioned above has been installed. It should be noted its interior, where there is installed a dressing room in which the Virgen del Socorro is venerated, hence the nickname of Arco del Socorro. As a curious fact, it was declared a Historic-Artistic Monument on June 3, 1931, that is, ten years before it was the complete set of the wall and all its doors and shutters. In the 1970s, it was restored by Alberto García Gil, as well as in 1989, in this case with works by Federico Coullaut.

There's a €1 entry fee here to walk the walls, but it's worth it, as the views are nice.

This is one of the 3 gates which gave access to old privileged side of Salamanca, this Puerta is next to Jewish quarters, it's might seem insignificant to go and see only this gate but it's definitely worth taking a walk along fortress seeing beautiful old side of the town make sure to notice signs on doors and floors which indicates different historic facts about particular place.

Beautiful scenic view. Amazing cathedrals.

Meson de Candido in Segovia offers a traditional Castilian dining experience with mixed results across their classic menu offerings. The decent chicken caesar salad provided a familiar, reliable start to the meal without any particular distinction from standard preparations. The interesting mushroom dish, Setas de Segovia, showcased local ingredients but proved a little too earthy for my taste. While clearly fresh and regionally authentic, the intense earthiness may appeal more to mushroom enthusiasts than casual diners seeking milder flavors. The seabass was very good, demonstrating the kitchen's capability with seafood preparation through proper cooking technique and seasoning that highlighted the fish's natural qualities without overwhelming them. The cochinillo (roast suckling pig) - the restaurant's signature dish - was good but could use more herbs and seasoning to elevate it beyond basic preparation. While the meat was tender and properly cooked, it lacked the bold flavors that would make this traditional Segovian specialty truly memorable. The dining experience was significantly enhanced by the stunning location - we loved the view of the Roman aqueduct, which creates an unparalleled backdrop that adds historical grandeur to the meal. This magnificent setting transforms an ordinary dinner into something special, making the restaurant as much about the experience as the food. Meson de Candido succeeds in providing traditional Castilian cuisine in an extraordinary setting, where the breathtaking views of the ancient aqueduct create lasting memories that complement the regional food offerings. Unfortunately, the staff were quite rude and unenthusiastic, rushing us to eat and leave.

We had such a great experience there! We were there 1pm on Tuesday, it was already very busy. We didn’t book a table but we were lucky enough to have a table! Because when we went in a few minutes after it opened, the restaurant was packed! We ordered 1 portion of a suckling pig, and a potato truffle omelet. Both of them were amazing! The owner of the restaurant himself did a small breaking the plate show to us and also to every room that day! It was amazing! Definitely recommend! (And the view from the restaurant is the Segovia Aqueduct itself! Truly beautiful). And the staffs are very nice.

While in Segovia, I dined at Mesón de Cándido, the city’s legendary spot for roast suckling pig. With such a reputation, expectations were understandably high – but the experience, unfortunately, didn’t quite live up to the hype. We had a dinner reservation, and although the place wasn’t fully booked, the staff’s service felt rather indifferent – not rude, but lacking warmth. It gave off the impression of a restaurant resting on its fame rather than striving to impress. We ordered a salad, pig’s ears with beans, the famous roast suckling pig, and roasted lamb. The pig is undoubtedly the headline item here, but to be honest, it felt overrated. The skin – usually prized for its crispiness – was soft and slightly rubbery, likely due to excess moisture. With better treatment of the skin, the dish could have lived up to its reputation. Surprisingly, the roasted lamb outshone the pig – crisp skin, tender meat, and full of flavor. Overall, while Mesón de Cándido holds undeniable historical significance and name recognition in Segovia, I wouldn’t say it’s a must-visit purely for the food. Unless you’re particularly drawn to the tradition and history of the place, there are probably better culinary options in town.

Of course it was a must when visiting Segovia. We had a reservation and we didn't have to wait to be shown to our table. The interior is very cozy and the views beautiful. We had the segovian mushroom and grilled Eggplants with ham as starters, duck and the suckling pig as entre and as dessert the sogovian ponche cake. All very tasty, especially the two starters stole the show. The staff were really friendly and tried to help us considering our very limited Spanish.

We loved the experience. The history of the restaurant and how many people they have served. The cochinillo show was a fantastic close to a very nice meal.

I was a group of seven and we were able to sit outside for lunch. Most in the group ordered the sucking pig and they enjoyed it. I ordered the chicken - I wasn’t what I expected but was okay. There was also an order of fish, which was the best meal at the table.

Large servings of food. We only wanted one dish but our server said it might not be enough for two. But when it arrived, it was good for at least 2. Oh well, something to eat at the hotel later. Service was very good, we got a table right away. I had the veal steak and it was very tender. My wife had the suckling pig roast and she liked it. The bread and wine are just okay. We also had the poncho segoviano and it was really good.

Segovia Cathedral – Simply Breathtaking One of the most beautiful and largest cathedrals I’ve ever seen. The interior architecture is flawless — every detail feels grand and timeless. Honestly, I’ve never seen anything like this in my life. Walking inside feels humbling, like stepping into history itself. A must-visit if you’re in Segovia.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Cathedral of Segovia – A Masterpiece of Faith and Architecture The Cathedral of Segovia is truly one of the most beautiful cathedrals I’ve ever visited. Known as the “Lady of Cathedrals” for its elegance, it was begun in the 16th century and took nearly 200 years to complete — and you can see the painstaking detail in every stone. Its late Gothic design with soaring spires, intricate carvings, and stunning stained glass makes it not just a religious site, but a living piece of art. Walking inside, you’re surrounded by chapels, vaulted ceilings, and priceless artworks that feel timeless. Segovia itself is one of the most architecturally beautiful cities in Spain, and the cathedral is its crown jewel. I highly recommend everyone to experience it in person — photos don’t do justice to its scale and artistry.

An amazing and beautiful Cathedral that is a must see in Segovia, like every review says. We took the 12:00 pm tower tour and loved it. The tour is in Spanish but we were given an audioguide with descriptions in English. Highly recommend this tour for a great view and the ability to see the amazing bell tower.

My husband and I visited the Cathedral on a Thursday in late March. It was an easy landmark to walk past and because we were able to visit the Alcazar earlier than planned, we had time to hit the Cathedral before lunch and our earlier train back. You do have to pay to visit this Cathedral, but it is well worth it as the last Gothic Cathedral built in Europe. There was great natural light when we visited, even on a chilly day, and it really showed off the Cathedral to its best from a massive illuminated manuscript to the cloisters, and a random moon installation, everyone tried to touch on their tiptoes.

The Cathedral of Segovia is absolutely breathtaking — a must-visit if you’re exploring this historic city. Often called “The Lady of Cathedrals” (La Dama de las Catedrales), it’s one of the last great Gothic cathedrals built in Spain, completed in the mid-16th century. What makes it so special is how it beautifully bridges late Gothic architecture with touches of Renaissance style — tall, elegant vaults, intricate stained glass, and a calm golden light that fills the entire space. Inside, the chapels are stunning, each with its own art and story. You can also visit the cloister and the museum, which hold centuries of religious art and artifacts. I especially loved how peaceful it felt despite being such a grand structure — it truly feels like stepping into another era.

Didn’t get a chance to visit the cathedral inside but the outside looks impressive. You can see it from several parts of the city, one of them from the plaza. The location is beautiful. there ia lots of green space to admire and enjoy.

Beautiful cathedral with impressive interiors too. Good information everywhere. Don't miss the paintings in the basement. 4E entry fee.

While the atmosphere was nice, this high priced meal fell short of expectation’s. First of all, one of the servers had a bad cold with a runny nose and red eyes. He shouldn’t have been there. We observed him grabbing his runny nose, then proceeded to grab silverware for customers. Thankfully he was not our server. My husband ordered the suckling fried pig and it was merely crackling with feet intact. Very dry. I ordered the Monk Fish with shrimp, and it was very undercooked. (See photo) Lastly, they appeared to not particularly care for us 2 Americans. We are easy folks. The only really friendly person was the tall slim gentleman in the white chef jacket and jeans that circulated around the restaurant. He was great!!!! We questioned if he was really the chef, or if we was hired to pretend to be since he was out front so often. Best part of the meal was the wine.

We visited 21september Had a fabulous meal. Had the Cochinillio asado A very intriguing bar and restaraunt We went into the bar on one street then went up internally two floors up. Well worth a visit 😊

Lunch stop during a day visit to Segovia! This place reflects the vibe of this magnificent city - medieval sharm! Multiple rooms with cozy decor! While tons of artifacts all over the place - it doesnt give a sense of clutter! Service was professional quick and friendly! Menu is traditional Spanish dishes - we tried a little of everything - we also had various soups - i personally ordered castile soup - it was ok. Probably would opt to try something else next time - but not because of poor quality - but more of a taste preference! House wine was great! Rich and tasty! Prices are a bit above average so if you want a more budget meal - this is not the place!! Overall - solid 5! 4 stars only for food and thats only because of taste matter! But certainly no regrets. I would not advise to drive there - park somewhere outside the old city and walk Segovia!!! It is worth every step

Authentic local restaurant with a long history. They serve local specialties in a traditional setting. We had the judiones de la granja, the cochinillo which is the suckling pig, and chorizos. They were all really delicious.

This restaurant is located very centrally in Segovia. When you enter, you’re greeted by very friendly staff which are super professional. The restaurant itself is very traditionally decorated. The food served is traditionally Spanish. The Cochinillo is one of the best in Segovia. Highly recommended to also order the starter plate which contains different specialties from the region!

Took the tasting menu. Very good and good value. Restaurant was very quiet when we went, decor is authentic.

A very tasty roast piglet. A huge portion. Great atmosphere in the restaurant. I will recommend it to my friends.

👍🏽👍🏽 Worth the trip, FREE to access outside gardens (most glorious we’ve ever seen) 🚍 GETTING HERE from Segovia is 20 minute drive, buses aren’t frequent. In Segovia, go to bus depot (separate bus company from those operating inside Segovia), pay for your ticket on the bus, €3.70 round trip, CASH ONLY (bus driver has change). Buy food in segovia to picnic out here. ❌🐶 no pets. Perfect way to spend a few hours, even if the fountains are being repaired or are turned off due to drought (check their we site). Technically you cannot bring in food, but many people picnic inside (just don’t leave any trash). But you CAN eat just outside of the entrance in the lovely park—there are stone benches. 🚾 ♿️ Very clean, accessible bathrooms. Cobblestone and small stone paths. You pay to enter the art museum inside.

Very nice, huge park, ample space for kids to run around. We spent 4 hours, without the palace itself, and didn't see everything. The park entry is free. In July they were repairing some fountains and for us the water plays were not on. Still, lots to see. Food is not permitted or available in the park, plan eating before or after in the nearby restaurants. Budget some time for strolling around the old town outside the park.

We visited from Florida, USA. We drove by La Granja. This is a Royal Palace of La Granja de San Ildefonso, is a royal palace and gardens built adjacent to the town in 1721-24. Is a great place to take breathtaking pictures and walk by. They have restrooms by the entrance. We did not have to pay to enter. Is pretty and the views are fenomenal!

Beautiful site amidst a stunning backdrop and NO CROWDS. We had the gardens almost to ourselves - well, us and the songbirds. A delightful visit overall.

Nice gardens but all the fountains are drained so whilst it was free entry it was quite a disappointment. It said the palace was free on a Wednesday afternoon but apparently that’s only for locals so we didn’t go in as I was a bit frustrated tbh

Spectacular building with beautifully appointed rooms containing some very special furniture and art. Audio tour was helpful.

It is actually a museum with really ancient tapestries, paintings and sculptures. The tapestries were most amazing considering these are cloth based and were from the 15th-16th centuries. Exquisite chandeliers. Entry is €9. We went on the weekend but there was not crowd. The gardens are also beautiful!

Its name comes from Medina del Campo, which was the center of commercial trade in medieval Spain. It has served as one of Segovia's important social and cultural centers. In the center is a statue of Juan Bravo, who played an important role in the Revolt of the Comuneros in the 1520s and fought for the freedom of the citizens.

Above a third of the way up the hill to the Alcazar is public square, Plaza de Medina del Campo. Flanked by beautiful Church of San Martin on one side and by nice looking hotels and shops on the other. At the centre of the square is a set of steps that take you up to the old watch tower. On the way up you'll also pass a monument to Juan Bravo, one of the leaders of the failed Revolt of the Comuneros. There's a restaurant near the top of the steps and because it's about 5 metres above the street level, it's a nice pace to sit and people watch. Don't go out of the way to see this though, as you're more likely to be walking past to get to the Cathedra, Alcazar or Plaza Mayor.

A picturesque plaza between the aqueduct and the cathedral. It is ringed by medieval buildings and complete with a commanding statue. It is also by many stores and restaurants. A nice place for a few photos!

Beautiful church in the middle of of Segovia. Surrounded by shops and beautiful statues.

Amazing place to visit!

Never been to such a cathedral. Lots of space inside. Not much to see inside though... But a magnificent building all in all

Very nice historic place

The Church of San Millán is a true Romanesque jewel, one of the most important and best-preserved temples in Segovia and in all of Castile. Its exterior, with a beautiful porticoed atrium, immediately captures the eye, while the sculptural decoration of the capitals—featuring scenes such as the Three Wise Men—adds an extraordinary artistic richness. Inside, the Romanesque ensemble of the main altar stands out as a highlight. Built at the beginning of the 12th century, the church has retained its solemn beauty through the centuries, and its designation as a National Monument in 1931 feels more than deserved.

The Romanesque architecture for churches is the more common one in Segovia. This church is a fine example. It took two centuries to finish building Iglesia de San Millán (11th to 13th). The results are simply beautiful. It's unfortunate that many churches in Segovia remain closed most of the time. As a tourist, you only get to see them from the outside. Try to get in on Sundays when some of them are open for liturgy.

Like most churches in Segovia, worth visiting. Attractive in and outside.

#Segovia #RomanicArt #worthtosee Church very near the bus station and on the way to the acueduct. It is worthy to surround it to enjoy its architecture.

A beautiful Romanesqu church, shame it was closed when I visited.

I couldn’t get in but just passed by before leaving Segovia. Quiet district with a lovely garden.

Very nice and descent

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Iglesia de San Martín – Segovia The Iglesia de San Martín is one of those hidden gems in Segovia that quietly takes your breath away. Built in the 12th century, this Romanesque church is a masterpiece that has stood for nearly 900 years. It sits right in the heart of the city, surrounded by arcaded galleries, and is instantly recognizable with its striking Mudejar-style bell tower and beautifully carved stone details. The church was originally constructed by the powerful Caballeros de San Martín and later became a hub of religious and civic life. What’s fascinating is how it blends Romanesque architecture with Moorish influences — a reminder of the diverse cultural history of Spain. The stone porticoes with semicircular arches give it such character, and the sculpted capitals show the level of artistry from that era. Personally, I loved walking around the church, taking in all the angles of the façade. My wife and I took plenty of photos here — the kind of place where the architecture feels alive, telling its own story through every arch and column. It’s peaceful, inspiring, and a must-see for anyone who appreciates history and design.

This is a perfect example of a medieval church and located just down from the Plaza Major in Segovia. The interior is simply styled with a barrel vaulted ceiling and a beautifully gilded altar. The exterior has the original carvings around the doors and in the corners but of real interest are the capitals of the pillars. They are all different and in fairly good condition considering their age and exposure to the elements. A lovely church to visit.

Gregorian chanting greeted us at the door of the church A big smile from a host welcomed us and we saw the beautiful altar with a Saint Martin picture above the altar depicting the moment when the Saint shared his Cape with the needy ! Felt a sense of peace and tranquility being close to God !

This is a church of great historical significance, bearing the traces of Spain's early religious history.

Nice but not amazing after having visited Segovia Cathedral. You'll certainly pass by it when walking from the Aqueduct to the Cathedral (and further to the Alcazar) or the other way. There is a fee to visit it. If you have enough time in Segovia you might visit it, but not if it mean having less time for the Alcazar, the Cathedral or the Aqueduct, the main attractions in this city.

Wonderful staff and excellent food in the centre of Segovia. Good prices, not the typical tourist trap. We were six and had all the menu with different dishes so we could try them all, the food was delicious and good quality, and the service was great. A place where we will go back!

OK, it's only 4 euros but you have only 4 numbers on the audio guide. A visit is over in 10 minutes and the church is far from impressive.

I’m amazed by the perfect flavor of the famous cochinillo. The skin separates from the fat, feeling crunchy and tenderness in one bite. The service is wonderful. The waiters are well dressed like gentlemen and offer attentive service. Although I sit by the table for lunch, I love the vibes in the bar area at noon time. Everyone is standing there, chatting and drinking beer. So cool!

El Sitio is the kind of restaurant that has not changed in 60 years. They serve the same great suckling pig. The service is elegant and professional like it was 60 years ago. And because of the high level of quality execution, the price offers great value. We drove to Segovia to eat at this restaurant and we were not disappointed. Highly recommended. Please don’t change, we want to come back to eat the same thing. P.S.: if this review was useful to you, please leave a quick ❤️, thanks 🙏

Amazing veal steak, great atmosphere and service. Very authentic inside. The Special Segovian cake was very light and delicious dessert. Julian - the waiter was very attentive and give great recommendations on food

What a find. We were really well looked after by Xavier who had offered to speak English but when I joked that I had been rehearsing my Spanish he spoke only in Spanish and helped me out when I got stuck. When we said we liked to share our main courses he asked the chef to serve us a fish course on two plates and then a meat course on two plates, very civilised. He also advised with the desserts, when we inadvertently ordered two very similar ones he recommended choosing an alternative to provide variety. The food itself was absolutely delicious. We had the seabass in a garlic and tomato sauce, then veal escalope with chips. For dessert we had the segovian speciality, a cake with custard, and a most amazing "fig cake" which was like homemade ice-cream with figs and cream. Everything beautifully presented and cooked to perfection. All the staff were very friendly. Would definitely recommend!

We walked in without a reservation but they found us a lovely table in their upstairs restaurant. The waiters were very friendly and we had the suckling pig, wonderful. Would highly recommend. Surrounded by locals, who were all very nice to us, even tho we only had tourist Spanish.

Conchillas and judiciones were the foods I wanted to try when in Segovia. That’s what I found at El Sitio. Judiciones at $8 were 5 stars but the conchillas at $28 were 4 stars because they didn’t have any seasoning and some parts were dry. Some servers were attentive and would ask if I was finished with my dish but some were not attentive aka they would dust off their dish cloth in front of my table. The music was American sad pop that’s quite unfitting for the ambiance. It is recommended to find a different restaurant that has better pricing if you are not looking to spend $50 for a meal.

Waiters didn’t see us at first but were more attentive and made up for it once they realized we were new guests. They also gave us broth from the Cochinillo they serve to warm us up, a nice gesture. We ordered: - Croquetas (underwhelming, I’ve had better) - salpicón (very good) - chorizo and potato (my favorite) - tortilla Coffee was very good here as well! I’m sure the non tapas menu is even better.

Excellent value for the tourist menu. Roast pig was very nice and delicious. Sad was that it cooled down quickly for sitting outside. Service was prompt and nice. Beautiful view and vibes to sit outdoor during sunset time.

It was two of was We spent 44 euros per person for one dish and one desert (shared) 1/4 of lamb plus the Segovia’s traditional desert with one salad (ensalada) without drinks was about 88 euros. The lamb was good some may find it smelly. I could only eat it with salad. But my friend loved it. I recommend the dessert.

It took a while to get seated. It seemed like they were closing. There weren’t a lot of people in the restaurant. It was dinner time (American time it was 18:00). I had a list of must try Spanish foods and drinks and roasted suckling pig was on the list. I like pork. Especially ribs and pork chops. However, I was not impressed by the roasted suckling pig. It reminded me of chitlins. But the wine was good. The potatoes were tasty. The service was typical for Spain. I would go back, but pick another dish.

The service is FAST!! If you’re in a hurry, this place is highly recommended. The ordered food hit the table in approximately 10 minutes after ordering. And it arrived hot, freshly prepared. The cheese and jam appetizer was the highlight for me — that was quite enjoyable. I don’t know what to expect with the monkfish meatballs, but they were surprisingly good — loved the sauce. The salad was a salad. The food coming out quick is the highlight of the customer service experience. The server was in quite a rush bouncing from table to table trying to move people out quickly — he wasn’t the friendliest. If you’re pressed for time, this is the place to try.

We had lunch here about a week ago. Service and food was very good. Waiter made good recommendations, portions are huge as prices are as well not small but you get good quality and huge size portions. Croquetas were amazing, chorizo and the pig were also very good.

An impressive and delicious dishes, combined with beautifull presentation and friendly staff. Luckily we arrived early to avoid the long queue.

This was recommended by our tour guide and we loved it! Liked that they have a full course meal with a drink. Everything was yummy and the Segovian Pig? Wow! Delicious!

What an incredible experience at this beautiful restaurant! We visited on a quiet weekday night out of season, but the owner made the utmost effort for our dining experience. His recommendations for both food and wine were excellent and we felt very welcome.

The owner of this restaurant is very nice. The service is great, and the menu is diverse. This is a decent restaurant! Good for a date. The food is also delicious, and I recommend people come here to eat.

Amazing food, we had a half pig between 4 people along with the recommended beans and soup and it was amazing. You truly feel like you are back when knights were wearing armor, lasses were slinging beer and the goats were roaming free. Highly recommend!

We came on a Thursday at 8pm and were the first guests, The owner handles everything himself and was a great host - despite not talking any English he knew how to communicate and help with the selection. We had a wine of recommendation - very good price value (15.80), the traditional bean dish - a bit bland for my taste (I like the Mexican version better) and the suckling pig for two - perfect on point and could have served three. Shared the only available dessert and had a coffee - both perfect - to finish. He served us a homemade Honey liqueur on the house and we were in a happy food coma. Local atmosphere, great food and a personal service experience - 10/10 would visit again. PS: He offers free taxi to his place, so maybe call him for that Improvement point: The breadbasket was a bit dry and bland

Amazing service and good food. We arrive without a reservation and the waiter managed to get us a seat although the restaurant is full . I fully enjoyed the sucking pig , bean stew and the dessert cake:)

We went for the menu, we had judiones, sopa gallega, croquetas, cochinillo and entrecot and it was tryllu wonderful, tasty and good quality for fair money. I deeply recommend this place. It might look a bit off from the outside but it's really good. For dessert go for ponche Segoviano.

excellent service and delicious dishes!

My friend took me to the "best restaurant in La Granja" and I believe it. We shared the pheasant salad and I can't give it too much praise. Our entrees were also excellent. Reservations recommended but they'll fit you in if they can.

Nice restaurant. The service is very good and friendly.prices are high.

Really pleasant place to go for dinner and really good for kids as well, their macarroni and meatballs were delicious!

The best dishes I had during my visit in Spain so far. It's packed with people though.

Fantastic traditional food. Must order the judiones (1 is good for 2 adults). Lamb stew was excellent. The best homemade french fries are served with every main course. Wine list very good. Every plate that went past our table looked so good! Copious meal. Great service. 5 star price/quality.

I visited this place recently. This was my second time in a month, and we always sat at the terrace. I found the food to be very tasty and of great quality, with a great selection. However, I'm not giving it 5 stars because the waiters could be a bit more friendly, and this is something I experienced both times. If you're going during the summer, I recommend that you make a reservation in advance, specially if you want to eat outside since the terrace is quite small.

Some of the best meat stew I have ever eaten.

If you are looking for a cochinillo that won't break the bank, this is definitely the place. Booking recommended as it gets quite busy during the weekends. Fast service too. It's also a bit hidden from the main street. Lovely service, the owners are attentive and friendly. Ponche segoviano was a great dessert 🍰

The atmosphere is like a family restaurant atmosphere, clean and warm. It’s pretty good. The food is tender and tasty. I like the soup and squid. The location is not on the main street but it’s like less than one minute away, which is perfect for us as it’s not a crowded with tourists. After we told the staff we were kind of in the rush, as we are with group tour, they arranged the dishes very efficiently and they’re warm and friendly. Overall, highly recommend.

Loved this place! Food was great from a set menu and really tasty and well prepared. Would recommend to others. Staff were welcoming and friendly. We were outside and it started to rain and the staff ran around helping to shelter everyone.

The food was good. The croquettes were amazing! Highly recommend. These were the best croquettes I tried during my trip. We also ordered a suckling pig leg, which was good! It was super busy and crowded in the restaurant and it was uncomfortably warm, but the tables were clean and service was great. However, this was the first restaurant that charged us for olive oil to go with our bread.

the food is tasty. The place and service is good as well.

A two minutes walk from Real Segovia Hotel, the restaurant has a pleasant and warm atmosphere. I had not eaten all day so I showed up without reservation at 8 pm, so for Spain is quiet early so I was given a table without a problem. I had the risotto with mushrooms and bacalao well seasoned and salted it was so delicious I enjoyed every bite. A glass of rioja to drink with and yes I know red wine and risotto but it is cold outside and the warm creamy texture of the risotto would have been ruined by a cold drink (my taste). A very large portion for one person, still had room for desert. I tried the Coulant de chocolate con helado de cafe (chocolate volcano) nice, soft and warm. Very nice! The service is fantastic, the food is great, I still have a few days around here so I will be back.

This restaurant serves typical Segoviano dishes. It’s a good 5-10 minute walk from the aqueduct. The ambiance is less crowded. We made a reservation for lunch. I ordered their menu and for my first dish got the sop castellana. Of course I had the cochinillo as my main dish. The menu also included a drink, dessert (I had ponche Segoviano), and coffee. Price €€-€€€

we had been there yesterday and it was very very good and tasty!!! the atmosphere also was great.

Restaurante El Soportal in Pedraza, Spain, is an absolute treasure. Nestled within the breathtaking charm of this medieval villa, the restaurant's cozy ambiance is a true delight. What truly makes this dining experience remarkable is the impeccable attention lavished upon every guest. The staff's dedication to ensuring an unforgettable visit is commendable. And as for the food, it's nothing short of extraordinary. Each dish served here is a culinary masterpiece that transports your taste buds to another world. Dining at Restaurante El Soportal Pedraza is a journey of sensory delight that you won't want to end.

In addition to the excellent main dishes, the starters - rice pudding and croquettes were great, while the desserts were regular

This is a gem! It is a rare find in the countryside of Northern Madrid, found in a converted medieval town. The food is absolutely spectacular!

Good service, very large restaurant with multiple dining areas and a good menu. Nice view of the Plaza Mayor

Awful place. We had a reservation at 15:30, they didn't seat us until 16:00, and didn't immediately bring the menu. Then we had a vegetarian and a vegan in the group, asked what they could eat. Their answer? "There is the menu". They ended up eating the salad, which was lettuce, tomato, and raw onion. The service awful, everything awful. Will never step in this place again. The wine from the house pretty bad as well.

Great food, highly recommended! Amazing traditional oven for roasted lamb. And the cheesecake was excellent for dessert!

Came for the €18.50 three course menu which also included red wine (about two glasses very drinkable), mineral water and bread. Food was superb, cooked to perfection. We had pork cheek and cod for mains. Both amazing for the price. Had to wait around for a few minutes in the bar to be served, but was worth it. Nicely air conditioned inside and historic interiors, nothing fancy but nice. Compared with prices elsewhere nearby this was great value and so tasty

Elegant, beautifully decorated, delicious food. I first heard about this restaurant in a TV show that praised the best restaurants in Segovia that one must dine in, even if only for tapas and drinks. They list their tapas by the year of award, and 2007, 2010 and 2014 are must-eats. Bartender was sociable, attentive, and very pleasant. Eat and feel a little bit of the enchantment of Jewish Spain. Love this place.

A lovely restaurant with a nice atmosphere in an old building. We ordered a 3 course day menu for €17.50 per person and that also included a jug of red house wine. The starter, the main and the dessert were all really good.

Great place in ancient Jewish Quarter of Segovia. Really pleasant dining in historic building. Really great food and the best cheesecake I had in my life (and I’m a fussy eater and a self proclaimed cheesecake connoisseur). We had menu of the day for a whole €17 per person - it included a fair size starter, a great main, really Nicole dessert and a jug of house wine. Highly recommended!

I totally enjoyed my experience here. With 13.5€ you get an appetizer, main course, dessert and half liter red wine. The service was good and the food is great. Would definitely come back again!!

Food was decent with ok portions. Traditional cuisine. Inside was very nice but the service wasn't very pleasant. I've had way better service in El Sitio and Jose Maria.

Delicious food! El Fogón Sefardí is located in the Hotel Spa La Casa Mudéjar, the food is very well presented and tasty, and the portions are good. The service was a bit slow but the place was fully packed and they were very nice and attentive, advising on which were the best dishes to order. We ordered around 5 starters, 4 main dishes, a dessert platter, several baskets of bread, a bottle of wine and several rounds of beer, and it costed us around £36/pp, def worth it! :)

Certainly, here’s a scathing and detailed review: I had high expectations for La Concepción in Segovia, but my visit was a complete disappointment. To start, the food was bland and uninspired. The supposed “signature dish,” a roasted pork belly, arrived with a soggy, rubbery skin instead of the crispy crackling you’d expect. The accompanying vegetables were overcooked to the point of being mush, and the sauce tasted like it came straight out of a can. The service was equally abysmal. Our server seemed indifferent, bordering on rude, and acted as though we were inconveniencing them by being there. It took over 20 minutes just to get our drink order, and another 40 minutes for the food to arrive—even though the restaurant wasn’t particularly busy. The portions were laughable. I ordered a main course, but the serving size would barely qualify as an appetizer. My partner’s meal wasn’t much better—three small ravioli on a plate with a sad sprinkling of cheese. And the prices? Outrageous. For two mains, a bottle of mediocre wine, and a shared dessert (which, by the way, was a rock-hard slice of “homemade” cheesecake), we paid over €120. For that price, I’d expect Michelin-star quality, not what felt like a reheated meal from a chain restaurant. Save your money and your time—there are far better dining options in Segovia that don’t rely on inflated prices and a reputation that is clearly undeserved. Avoid La Concepción at all costs.

Restaurante La Concepción offers a delightful dining experience. During our family lunch in the first week of January 2024, we enjoyed a variety of appetizers that showcased a range of flavors and textures, setting a positive tone for the meal. The main course, a perfectly cooked steak, was the highlight of our dining experience. It was tender, juicy, and seasoned to perfection. Although I can’t recall the names of the appetizers and dessert, they were both delicious and complemented the meal well. The service was attentive and friendly, making our visit even more enjoyable. Highly recommended for a memorable dining experience.

My husband and I visited this restaurant for lunch on a Thursday in late March, it had been recommended on a blog about visiting Segovia. I loved the plaza location where we could watch a farmer's market and we had a view of the Cathedral we had just toured. We sat out on the patio because there was no wait for a table versus inside. While it was chilly, the server went around turning on the heating stoves, which made it very pleasant. We had some delicious crusty bread as a starter, each a bottled water, and entree. We were close enough to talk to people at the table next to us and our food was quite tasty. Our total was US $65

This restaurant deserves 5 stars for the simple reason that it's one of the few restaurants which serves food between 4 and 6 in the afternoon. If you missed the lunch windows, there aren't many places available, but this is one of them. It is true that it was more expensive and the service could have been a little more friendly, but the food was good and the view over the central Plaza made it worth it.

We ordered a bottle of wine. Asked for a menu and never saw a waiter again. Beautiful space but terrible service. Even though we tried to converse in Spanish, we were only received with rudeness.

Restaurante La Concepción offers a truly serene dining atmosphere that immerses you in a peaceful ambience. Imagine being surrounded by the delightful chirping of birds and distant church bells, creating a tranquil backdrop for your meal. It's the perfect place to unwind with a glass of rich red wine. During our visit, we were drawn in by the charming setting after exploring the nearby cathedral. I opted for the Pipito Bocodillo dish, which was a delightful combination of flavours complemented the warm, freshly baked bread. The steak meat was cooked to perfection, tender, and juicy. My uncle savoured the mixto sandwich, which he thoroughly enjoyed. As we dined, I indulged in two delicious cappuccinos, all while taking in the picturesque views. The attentive staff at Restaurante La Concepción added to the overall experience, providing friendly service and displaying remarkable efficiency. Their patience, especially with my limited Spanish skills, was greatly appreciated. If you're looking for a dining experience that combines relaxation, exquisite food, and a welcoming atmosphere, this is the place to be.

Had a wonderful dining experience at Restaurante La Concepción in Segovia. Every dish we tried was consistently delicious. The pulpo braseado was tender and flavorful — perfectly cooked with that melt-in-your-mouth texture. The chipirones a la plancha were also excellent, fresh and beautifully seasoned, simple yet truly satisfying. The atmosphere was welcoming, and the service felt genuine and attentive. It’s the kind of place where you can relax, enjoy, and really taste the quality in every plate. Highly recommended when visiting Segovia. ✨🍽️

Amazing spot for the Castle photos! Lovely green grass and nature all around with the towering castle above it. Absolutely recommend to stop by here.

Lovely grassy clearing surrounded by trees with some pretty spectacular views up to the Alcázar de Segovia. This would be a great location to have a picnic.

Great place to stop by. The view of the castle is amazing. Its a steep downhill or uphill walk to get there but its worth it, cause not many tourists go there. When we visited the place was practically empty and we had it for ourselfs.

Perfect view of the Alcázar of Segovia. You can also have a picnic.

Beautiful and magical castle. Fabulous walk up to the castle and around it. We paid to walk round the grounds and the museum. Fabulous and worth every penny.

A great spot to overlook the Alcazar of Segovia

After you visit the castle you must go and visit this place! You can take a nice and long rest here with this nice view! You have a free parking area and access to a really intimate park. If you plan to take a break to eat your food that you have with you, feel free to go there and make a picnic out of it with an incredible view.

his is the house where the renowned poet Antonio Machado spent his formative years in Segovia. The museum offers a fascinating look into his life and work, with rooms preserved as they were during his stay and exhibits showcasing his personal belongings, manuscripts, and period furniture. Admission is €4, and if you have the "Amigos de Segovia" card, you receive a €1 discount. The entry price includes an audioguide, available in both English and Spanish, which provides detailed insights into Machado’s story and the history of the house. If you enjoy exploring in depth and listening to the full audioguide, plan to spend around 3 to 3.5 hours for a thorough visit. The museum is a must for literature enthusiasts and anyone interested in Spanish culture, offering an intimate and authentic experience of one of Spain’s greatest poets.

It’s not very big but worth at least an hour's visit. The information and commentary that the audioguide provided really help me to better understand the history and Machado’s life. Highly recommended!

One warning: the entry doorway is very low and there is no warning, so you duck on the way in because it is obvious, but the height issue not so obvious on the way out. So watch out if you are 6 foot tall or bigger.

2.5€ the ticket. It includes the audioguide I like it eventhough I didn't know a lot of him. I fastly could understand.

Worth the visit and satify curiosity of the great Poet Machado of Segovia

Very good audio tour, house is bigger than expected

We did not enter but when we arrived there was a performance and it was lovely.

This mint museum is a hidden treasure! Not only does it cover the history and evolution of ancient minting technology in Segovia, but it also features a wonderful interpretation center about the Aqueduct's history. It's located behind the Segovia Castle. Our Cabify driver happened to drop us off there, so we were lucky to start our Segovia day trip with that background knowledge. It worked out perfectly. From the mint museum, we walked across the street and climbed about 300 steps to the castle. The view along the way was breathtaking. Highly recommend! P.S. We had intended to take the Avant high-speed train from Madrid to Segovia, but the city rail experienced some delays, causing us to miss our train. Fortunately, from the Madrid Chamartín station, we were able to hire a driver via the Cabify app to take us to Segovia. The ride was an hour and 10 minutes, and it cost us 60 euros at the time (a weekday, late morning travel in June). The cab fare was comparable to the train tickets cost for our family of four. Our Cabify driver was very nice, and we got to practice some pleasant conversation in Spanish with him during our ride.

A really excellent, interesting museum by the river. The entrance fee of €5 is extremely good value as it is easy to spend a couple of hours in there. The audio guide available in a range of languages is very informative and actually quite amusing too! There are many interesting exhibits charting the history of the building and the development of money production over the centuries. The reception staff were most welcome and helpful. There is a good café / restaurant just next door too. Well worth a visit.

The museum is educational and everything is presented well. It also includes an interesting section which talks about the history of the aqueduct.

Such an interesting place, wonderfully explained with your individual audio guide. In an incomparable green area with a beautiful restaurant just by the river and the King's fresh garden perfectly kept. A must in Segovia. Don't you miss it!!

Very well done museum with displays and audio guides in both Spanish and English. Clearly put together by a team that knows how to present information in an engaging way. Highly recommend a visit. Easy to walk to from town with some very pleasant paths to follow nearby.

Excellent museum in the old Mint, about 15 minutes walk downhill from the Cathedral. The most exciting part for me was the brilliant display of items and works of art by Ellas de Andres who is over 90 and still gives demonstrations twice a week on the equipment here. The museum has a pleasant cafe opposite the old waterwheels.

Segovia is a beautiful place and is a must visit if you are in spain. 1 hr from madrid it's a historical place I feel. The Museo can be a first addition to your trip to segovia

Really enjoyed this royal palace. I had the place to myself so could examine everything in peace. Only 5 euros to enter. Really interesting artwork and decoration. Great architecture. The palace is also located in a very surreal landscape and has a short trail to experience the local nature. I saw a lot of interesting birds and some deer. Great experience close to Segovia.

Absolutely underrated. It was pin-drop quiet and very serene. Well maintained and superb views and architecture. No tourists around but very accessible and no wait whatsoever, almost empty parking lot. A must-see for those who love history and nature.

It is amazing to see such a beautifully decorated palace in such a small village. Must visit if you are nearby. Free to visit for EU citizens.

A real small gem among Spanish palaces, only relatively few people know. One hour from Madrid by car, only a few minutes from Segovia. The palace visit includes spectacular chambers and a hunting museum.

Very nice palace. Nobody was there when we visited, so we had it all. Beautifully decorated rooms.

I was enchanted by the Royal Palace of Riofrio. It is set in a desolate landscape, far and wide, nothing, amazing!cOnly 15 km from Grancha, it is connected with the monarchs. Together with the Palacio de la Granja, they are the two royal residences in the Segovia area.Sumptuous interiors. And the breathtaking approach to the castle. Definitely worth exploring! Nice staff.

Awesome history! Where final scenes from Patton (1970) were filmed. Enjoy!

This place is mostly for locals as the staff seemed to know their customers. We were excited to eat at a truly local place as we had done in many other towns in Spain. However, the service was abrupt, not very friendly - probably the least friendly restaurant during our 5 week vacation in Spain. We ignored the reluctant and inattentive staff attitude and refused to let this bother us while we were on vacation. There were only a few tables occupied as we went a little past 2 pm and the people had left by the time we started ordering. Food wise, the torrija was pretty yummy. We ordered too much for the mediocre quality of the rest of the food. This is in comparison to the other restaurants we’ve been to. I would return for the torrija. Nothing else.

Unfortunately, the service at La Tropical in Segovia felt unwelcoming, especially for non-locals. The staff seemed indifferent, making it difficult to get served. The quality of the snacks was underwhelming—torreznos were chewy rather than crispy, and other items lacked care in preparation. On top of that, pricing felt inconsistent, with unexpected charges for each item. Overall, not the best place if you’re looking for good service and well-prepared snacks.

Nice little coffee shop at the entrance of segovia. I think this is a great stop to grab a hot coffee after you the see the aqueduct and before you venture further into the city.

I visited this place with my family and partner and I really liked the atmosphere and the female waiter was very friendly. We had a fantastic experience and I recommend this place to have traditional chocolate and churros like a local. I also liked that you can add the sugar yourself or have it without, something important in these times when sugar reduction on the diet becomes relevant.

Perfect churro! Not too sweet Perfect choco latte And not that friendly servers

Waiters/bar staff need to understand that when a toddler is having a melt down and the bill has been requested, give the parent the bill ASAP. It is a bit like having a drunk person bothering other customers in the place and saying, "naaaaah. We'll let them continue bothering our clients instead of dealing with it." I stood at the bar and asked three times before it was dealt with. Meanwhile, a couple at a booth were like, "I don't know why they don't take the baby outside?" Yeah. I love having parenting criticized because the staff priority is everything and everyone else. We got huevos con jamón. The jamón was so bad my toddler spit it out. I was like, "I'll finish it then. I love jamón." Nope, also that bad that i ended spitting it out. And expensive. The only reason I went there was the place i had been the previous day was closed. Same menu items cost €5 with better service for what I paid for €7 there. (And the surcharge for sitting at a table bothers me too. Worse service at a table and you sure as heck can't do a toddler or baby at a bar.)

Stopped in twice. In the morning and on our way out of Segovia in the late afternoon. Had an excellent American breakfast, eggs, ham, bread. Did not try the churros. Service was very good both times. In the afternoon stopped for a couple of beers and some tapas they have outdoor seating. Attentive service both times.

One of the best value museums I’ve ever been into. It’s highly under-rated, an amazing number of artefacts from Segovia from prehistoric through to modern times. This town has been through a lot. Super quiet, we were the only ones here, the bus and day tourists seem to bypass it. Excellent and only €1 per person for entry.

A great way to spend an afternoon. :) It’s free and offers a concise, engaging overview of the city's history from ancient times to the 20th century. Relaxed atmosphere—definitely worth a visit!

The Museo de Segovia (Museum of Segovia) has a little of everything that has anything to do with the history and evolution of the city. At the beginning of my visit, I thought that it was going to be an anthropological museum. Soon after, it turned into a history museum showing artefacts from Roman times. A few rooms later it became a museum with a good collection of religious art from the middle ages and the Renaissance. Various industries that were part of the city's history were highlighted in other rooms. The entrance fee to this rich and varied collection is not more than 1 Euro!

EXCELLENT museum covering local history, from pre-historic to modern times. 1€ entry

Hidden out of sight and at first we thought closed because of the reflection from the barred gate. Enthusiast staff wanted to ensure we saw everything but they also watch you to ensure nothing is touched. Quite right because everything is very accessible, meaning you really can get a good look. Fascinating stuff and I wish more had been in English. I had to use my iPhone camera translate app all the time.

It is a very interesting museum abiout Segovia's history from pre-roman,celto-iberic period until xvii centuary, when Sivilla was an importan industrial town, with textile , glass and coins industies, the spanish industrial revolution was born here!!!

This is the last touristic attraction that I have visited in 2 days in Segovia. After 10 museums /churches/palace/factories, this museum was a good summary of the life and history in Segovia. There's a great part dedicated to the wool production (that one can't find in the other museums). Several pieces are described in English and audioguide was not available) although some items had the headphones sign beside. There's good internet coverage, one can willingly use Google Translate to scan the Spanish writings and better understand the story. Stuff was very kind and followed me throughout the museum to indicate me the path by gestures. For 3 floors of stories and items, the admission ticket is only 1€.

Beautiful spot in Segovia, you walk by the street from the Aqua duct and reach here. Pause for some photos, worth it! Lovely sight

Beautiful view at the city and the mountains. However, there are more places with even better views (from stairs near akvadukt and from around alcazar)

It has a nice view of the city but not so high so i believe it is not a must-see. You can have better views from the stairs by the aqueduct and also from the tower of alcazar!

Good spot for a photo

Gorgeous sights of Segovia from here

Beautiful view

Sevilla is beautiful and peaceful

Situated in a couple of buildings in the center of Segovia is the Museum of Contemporary Art Esteban Vicente. It's worth visiting if you have the time and inclination. You won't need a lof time to cover the various exhibits on display.

It is okay, i guess you rely on whether you have any interest in the artist, it is more focussed on one or two rather than a collection of different artists

Most of the museum was dedicated to the temporary exhibition. It doesn't take long to visit, and it's free, so I recommend it.

Overall very nice. The Esteban Vicente collection currently on display is interesting in that his work covered multiple styles reflecting different aspects of his personal and artistic evolution, even though it was not all overly impressive individual pieces. The building itself has some nice features. The auditorium inside is good to peek at as well.

Impressing exhibitions and very friendly staff. One of the best places to visit in Segovia

Google maps says the museum is open but it is closed until October.

A small, well-curated museum featuring the work of an influential abstract expressionist. Not as radical as Pollock, a lot more like Rothko. We loved it.

Cozy and quality bar in the heart of Segovia´s historic core. It seems to be the oldest licensed bar in Segovia. But most importantly, it is probably the most notable craft beer location in the city. It is steps away from the cathedral and the main square where it also typically has a few open air tables. It has a few rotating craft taps, with two of them commonly dedicated to Segovia brewers (San Frutos and Octavo Arte), and also has a good cooler with contemporary and classic cans and bottles. It operates as a full bar otherwise, with plenty of activity managed by professional and knowledgeable staff. Serves tasty cold tapas with the drinks, but has no food menu or kitchen per se. It´s a great stop during every visit to Segovia.

Very good bar in Segovia with a lot of good beers on Tap and also many bottles in the fridges. Can recommend this place for draft beers.

COME HERE! Great craft beer, great musica, and good vibe!

Coat hooks under the bar are always the sign of a good bar and Bar Rubi didn't disappoint. Great find. Hospitable, great local beers, excellent music, particularly enjoyed the cheese tapas and introduction to local Muron red wine. Very creative use of corks too! Thanks Rubi's 👍

Nice little bar near plaza mayor with a great selection of beers and some simple yet tasty tapas. Service is good too and recommended for a few drinks before reaching the alcazar. Worth a visit and stop by in this place!

Nice bar nice staff nice local beers from tap.

Had a lovely time at Rubi Bar. We paid the bill, left the Bar,only to return because we realized there was not better place for beers and tapas with amazing service provided by Maria.

Must see and visit … great walk … at least 6 km walk around if not 10km 😊 … many different areas and great for a family trip .

Pleasant to the eye, the castle and gardens are reasonably sized and can be visited together in about 2hrs. Personally, once you’ve seen 2 or 3 of Europe’s leading castles, most others seem to blend into one.

One of my favorite places in the world! This Spanish version Versailles was the Royal Family’s summer palace. It’s mythological fountains and majestic gardens transport you to another another place and time. Do not miss this hidden gem.

Just like any other garden, wouldn’t bother visiting and wasting my time there. Plenty of other towns in Spain with much more culture and history and nicer people

Stunning gardens surrounding the palace. Fountains and statues everywhere - don't miss it.

Most beautiful gardens i’ve ever seen! The fountains with it‘s history, breathtaking!

Beautiful palace and wonderful garden. Well worth the visit!

There are several spots for romantic strolls or chilling out in Segovia. Some, like this one, are situated right on top the walls of the city. From there you can take incredible photos of the countryside and surround villages.

Lovely place with amazing sights of the countryside

Satisfying

(Translated by Google) Not as a goal, but as a path to the Alcázar. It is worth every meter of walking along the wall in May. Peaceful and well-kept. (Original) Não como objetivo, mas como caminho para o Alcázar. Vale cada metro de caminhada pela muralha no mês de Maio. Tranquilo e bem cuidado

Great authentic food!! Korina was an awesome waitress, she took good care of us

Korina was super nice and welcoming. She even gave us some free coffee at the end.

(Translated by Google) We ordered two menus and we liked all the dishes, there was nothing left over. Curried eggplant millefeuille, pistachio crusted cod and cheesecake. They were nice enough to invite us to coffee. The treatment and the perfect place. I recommend booking in advance. (Original) Pedimos dos menús y nos gustaron todos los platos, no sobró nada. Milhojas de berenjena al curry, bacalao con costra de pistacho y tarta de queso. Tuvieron el detalle de invitarnos al café. El trato y el local perfecto. Recomiendo reservar con tiempo.

(Translated by Google) On April 20, 2025, we had lunch in this tavern and had the “menu of the day” for €22.50 per person. Nothing was good: a terrible soup starter, a decent dish but cold and very poorly presented, totally tasteless desserts. But you have to be careful because apparently this tavern is twinned with a restaurant above which seems better. But more expensive... (Original) Le 20 avril 2025, nous avons déjeuner dans cette taverne et pris le « menu du jour » pour 22,50€ par personne. Rien n’était bon : une soupe en entrée infecte, un plat correct mais froid et très mal présenté, desserts totalement insipides. Mais il faut faire attention car apparemment cette taverne est jumelée avec un restaurant au-dessus qui semble meilleur. Mais plus cher…

(Translated by Google) I have been eating here for many years every time I go to Segovia, and it is a very suitable place if you want to get away from the suckling pig and beans that most restaurants in Segovia have. The service is sometimes a little slow, but it makes up for it with some very delicious dishes and tapas if you have a little culinary concern. If you want a more formal meal, you can go up to the Sephardic stove at the Restaurant, which is connected to this tavern, and the food and service are exquisite. I ate again today, September 2, 2023, the service was 10, and the cod au gratin was impressive. Grandma's cake and cottage cheese cake, homemade and delicious. (Original) Llevo muchos años comiendo aquí alguna de las veces que voy a Segovia, y es un sitio bastante adecuado si quieres salir un poco del cochinillo y judión que tienen la mayoría de restaurantes de Segovia. El servicio a veces es un poco lento, pero se compensa con unos platos y tapas muy ricos si tienes un poco de inquietud culinaria. Si quieres una comida algo más formal, puedes subir al Restaurante el fogón sefardí, que se comunica con esta taberna, y la comida y el servicio son exquisitos. He vuelto a comer hoy 2 septiembre de 2023, la atención de 10, y el bacalao gratinado impresionante. La tarta de la abuela y la de queso cottage, caseras y deliciosas.

(Translated by Google) This tavern is ideal for tapas or a set menu. Excellent service, and the daily menu offers excellent value. (Original) Esta taberna es ideal para tapear o comer de menú. Muy buen servicio y el menú diario buena relación calidad-precio.

(Translated by Google) Weekday set menu for 18.50. Located away from the hustle and bustle, in the shade. Homemade and very good food. The pistachio-crusted cod loin is outstanding. Highly recommended. (Original) Menú del día entre semana por 18,50. Apartado del bullicio, a l sombra. Comida casera y muy buena. Destacable el lomo de bacalao en costra de pistacho. Recomendable.

(Translated by Google) The bar is a bar from the 60s and it's still like that, with the owner being the only one who serves unfriendly, unkempt...quiet, not very clean...and why do we go there? Well, I honestly don't know...maybe because of the tranquility of the place, not because of the attention...maybe because of the fresh beer and homemade food...it's better to go and check, honestly I don't know if health care knows about that bar...but still So there are always people.... (Original) El bar es un bar de los de los años 60 y sigue así,con todo,el dueño que es el único que sirve antipático,desaliñado...tranquilo poco aseado..y porque vamos allí? Pues sinceramente no lo sé...quizás por la tranquilidad del sitio,no por la atención ..quizás por la cerveza fresquita y comida casera..mejor ir y comprobar,sinceramente no sé si sanidad sabe de ese bar...pero aún así siempre hay gente....

(Translated by Google) A very nice place, homemade food of quite good quality, a real surprise.

(Translated by Google) The place is a joy, Jose has a slow metabolism but if you have patience, it's great. Fried eggs and pickled partridge, incredible. (Original) El sitio es una gozada, Jose es de metabolismo lento pero si tienes paciencia, es genial. Huevos fritos y perdiz en escabeche, increíble.

(Translated by Google) What I liked least was that some light bulbs did not allow us to see the Alcazar illuminated. The view was spectacular until they turned them on. We had green salad, potato omelette, pickled quail and cuttlefish. Everything is very good, especially the quail. (Original) Lo que menos me gusto, es que alguna bombilla no dejaba ver al Alcazar iluminado. La vista era espectacular hasta que las encendieron. Tomamos ensalada de verdel, tortilla de patata, codornices escabechadas y sepia. Todo muy bueno, en especial las codornices.

Iglesia de San Clemente - The church is characterized by a semicircular apse of three arches, with columns. It would retain the Romanesque construction of the portico, and two portals: that of the nave, and the lateral, which gives entrance into the church. The tower is of low height and was revoked in the eighteenth century The altars are baroque and Churrigueresque. At the beginning of the 20th century, it was attached to the mother parish of San Millán (Wikipedia).

(Translated by Google) It is one of the many churches of the Catholic cult in the city of Segovia. It is in Romanesque style from the Xll-Xlll Century. It is very small and very close to the aqueduct. It has only one ship. I don't know how they celebrate masses. It is very well preserved, it had two entrance doors, but one of them is bricked up. La Torre suffered several medications due to attacks during the War of Independence. (Original) Es una de las tantas iglesias del culto católico de la ciudad de Segovia.

(Translated by Google) Interesting Romanesque church built between the 12th and 13th centuries, located in the commercial heart of the city, very close to the aqueduct.

In its origins it was located outside the walls, next to the Verdugo bridge that crossed the Clamores stream, now buried. It is popularly known as the convent of the Reparadoras after the religious order that has run it since 1935, although it was previously occupied by Salesian nuns from Portugal.
