San Nicolas square
San Nicolas square, in the south of Avila.
San Nicolas square is in the south of Avila.It is triangular shaped and around there are houses built in a varity of styles ,there is a churh too that is San Nicolas, there aren`t arcades. San Nicolas churh was built in devotion to San Nicolas, the bishop,in 1198. and the constrution materials are and reflect in some way the poverty of its former parishioners. the origins of this church date back to the early days of the repopulation.
Nowdays, there are two bars (one in each corner).the only symbols of the economycal power. There was a supermarket “Consum”.
Around the square there are parks, roads,…where there were vegetable gardens before. in habitans this zone there were fermes, livestock farmers, craftsman,…
Streets from San Nicolas square end in other different streets, square.....
