Soria
- situated on the Rio
Duero in the east of the autonomous community, the city is noted for its
walls and a number of architecturally distinctive churches. These include
the Plateresque Concatedral de San Pedro and its cloister, the convent
church of Santo Domingo, and the unique architectural mix of the ruined
cloisters of San Juan de Duero, on the other side of the river from the
old town. A few kilometres north of the town are the ruins of Numantia,
a Celtiberian town whose inhabitants destroyed it rather than let it fall
to Scipio. In Soria is the Museo Numantino, devoted to the archeological
remains of this site. The city's professional football club is called CD
