Internship and Practicum in Salamanca

Lying 204km to the north west of Madrid and 118km from the border with Portugal, Salamanca is the liveliest town of old Castile thanks to its large student population. Salamanca university dates back to around 1220 and became one of the world's principal seats of learning alongside Oxford, Paris and Bologna.

Today it is a magnet for foreign language students learning Spanish. In Salamanca, the inhabitants are said to speak the "purest" Spanish of Spain, a reputation it shares with Valladolid. For this reason Salamanca is popular with people all over the world who want to learn Spanish. The city is large enough to be able to offer the advantages of a real city, but at the same time it keeps the intimacy of a village.

This ancient university town north-west of Madrid was first conquered by the Carthaginians in the 3rd century B.C. It then became a Roman settlement before being ruled by the Moors until the 11th century. The university, one of the oldest in Europe, reached its high point during Salamanca's golden age. The city's historic centre has important Romanesque, Gothic, Moorish, Renaissance and Baroque monuments. The Plaza Mayor, with its galleries and arcades, is particularly impressive

Salamanca's monuments are constructed of sandstone which makes the whole city seem to glow brightly as the sun sets. Certainly this is one of Spain's most architecturally beautiful cities. The Plaza Mayor is considered the finest in the country and you'll find yourself hanging around its many cafés watching the world go by at least once during your visit.

The main attractions beside the various University buildings include its two Cathedrals, a fine Roman bridge, La Casa de las Conchas which is a house decorated with 350 shells as well as a variety of ancient Renaissance buildings scattered around the historical central district.
