Cortes de Castilla y León

The other day I went to my godson's first communion, and while I was on the road, I decided to take a diversion to visit this spot, which I imagined would be both interesting and educational. The new parliament building stands on Avenida Salamanca (the N-620a), but the old seat was in Fuensaldaña Castle. It's a modern building, 30,000m2, with a facade of white concrete, glass and stone designed by the architect Ramon Fernandez Alonso. A guide showed us around the various rooms, explaining the functions of the courts. The kids loved the chance to sit in the prosecutor's chair in the Chamber!
