Belvís de Monroy Castle has a long history beginning in the 13th century. Located in the central part of Spain, its survival through stylistically contrasting periods in history has resulted in an aesthetically eclectic architectural design. This castle was built in the Middle Ages on the site of an older Moorish fortress, and then rehabilitated into a palace during the Renaissance. At present it is closed to the public, but you can visit it from the outside. You can also visit the old village spreading at its feet. During your visit, don't forget to go into the local museum, where you will learn many interesting facts about the place.
The Clementinum is a historic complex of buildings in Prague. Until recently the complex hosted the National, University and Technical libraries, the City Library also being located nearby on Mariánské Náměstí. The Technical library and the Municipal library have moved to the Prague National Technical Library at Technická 6 since 2009. It is currently in use as the National Library of the Czech Republic.
Its history dates from the existence of a chapel dedicated to Saint Clement in the 11th century. A Dominican monastery was founded in the medieval period, which was transformed in 1556 to a Jesuit college. In 1622 the Jesuits transferred the library of Charles University to the Klementinum, and the college was merged with the University in 1654. The Jesuits remained until 1773, when the Klementinum was established as an observatory, library, and university by the Empress Maria Theresa of Austria.
