Summary

[edit]
Description
English: WALLS. THIRD WALLED ENCLOSURE

XIV-XV Century The third walled enclosure corresponds to the expansion of the city to the south. Due to the flatness of the Ribera del Duero, the walls were built at a great height, although with ashlar and ashlar of lower quality than the one existing in the other enclosures. The masonry of the sections of wall found belong to quarries near the city. Its lack of quality was compensated with a great constructive power since the thickness of the walls is close to three meters.

This extension became known as El Burgo, since it was part of a large suburb of the city with a rich trade and commercial activity. Thus, the area known as Puebla del Valle that integrated the Barrios Bajos where, according to tradition and history, the Islamic population of the city was concentrated.
Español: MURALLAS. TERCER RECINTO AMURALLADO

Siglo XIV-XV El tercer recinto amurallado se corresponde con la expansión de la ciudad hacia el sur. Debido a la planitud de la ribera del Duero, los muros se construyeron de gran altura, aunque con sillería y sillarejo de peor calidad al existente en los otros recintos. La sillería de los tramos de muralla encontrados pertenece a canteras próximas a la ciudad. Su falta de calidad se compensó con una gran potencia constructiva ya que el grosor de los muros se acerca a los tres metros.

Esta ampliación se conoció como el Burgo ya que integraba un amplio suburbio de la ciudad de rica actividad gremial y comercial. Así, quedó murada la zona conocida como Puebla del Valle que integraba los Barrios Bajos donde, según la tradición y la historia se concentraba la población islámica de la ciudad.
