University of Valladolid
notes:
The University of Valladolid is a Spanish public university founded in 1241 by Alfonso VIII of Castile.
From the Plaza de Santa María (today the University Square), one can see the Baroque facade designed by the Carmelite Fray Pedro de la Visitación and constructed in 1715. There are sculptural groups that represent allegories of the subjects that are taught in the building. The central section, organized into four columns of giants, is finished off by a giant ornamental comb.
