Since the 12th century the citizens of Zaragoza tried to build a bridge across the Ebro. In 1401-1440, the stone bridge was built under the direction of Gil de Menestral. The flood in 1643 destroyed two central bridge spans. Since then the bridge looked as you can see in the picture "View of Zaragoza" by Juan Bautista Martínez del Mazo.
I saw the painting during a visit to the Prado Museum in Madrid.
Nuestra Señora del Pilar by the Ebro river.
A Roman Catholic church. The architecture is Baroque style and it was built between 1681 and 1872. It features paintings on the ceiling by Goya and Bayaeu who are very famous and classic artists
