Is the university city per excellence, hosting the oldest university in Spain and one of the oldest in Europe? It has, therefore, an intense student life that is reflected in the daily life and social environment of the city.
Another striking feature of the town is its rich heritage. The historic center of the city remains intact having been declared as an UNESCO World Heritage City.
Salamanca was, also during the year of 2002 the European city of Culture.
