Things to Do in Segovia Spain: Ancient Aqueduct to Fairytale Castle

The medieval section of Segovia Spain is a masterpiece.

Segovia Day trip from Madrid

Segovia is one of those magical towns that seems to take your breath away with each new thing you discover. An exquisite old section surrounded by an ancient Roman wall, it’s what’s inside that wall that offers the most amazing things to do in Segovia.

The one which is most famous is probably the Alcazar of Segovia, otherwise thought of as the fairytale castle that was Disney’s inspiration.

Then there is the Cathedral of Segovia, an off-the-charts example of the attention paid to every detail in late Gothic architecture.

However, I was so captivated by the Aqueduct of Segovia I could barely peel myself away to discover the other sites. Thankfully we did, as staring up at the aqueduct is only one of several fascinating things to do in Segovia.

For us, Segovia was a self-guided day trip from Madrid. While I would have preferred more time here, I know that many get less time and combine it as a day tour of nearby Toledo. One would need a guide to attempt that, or they would simply miss too much.

Top 3 things to do in Segovia Spain

  • Aqueduct of Segovia
  • Cathedral of Segovia
  • Alcazar of Segovia (a fairytale castle)

Aqueduct of Segovia

The impressive Aqueduct of Segovia is over 2000 years old and incredibly well preserved. It’s an engineering feat of the Roman Empire, built about 50 A.D.

With two tiers of arches, it stands 28 meters tall and stretched 16,220 meters. Most impressive is the fact that gravity holds the unmortared granite bricks in place.

It’s a symbol that features prominently on the city’s crest, and it’s often thought of as the main drawing card for Segovia. However, there are plenty of other fascinating things to do in Segovia.

Local folklore nicknamed the aqueduct Puente de Diablo, meaning “Devil’s Bridge”.

According to legend, the devil built the bridge overnight in a bet to win a serving girl’s soul. The tale says that the devil lost the gamble because he was one brick short of completing the aqueduct when the rooster crowed, signalling morning. The marks from the devil’s fingers appear as holes dotting the surface of the granite blocks.

I love the patterns cast by the shadows.

Cathedral of Segovia Spain

The city is also known as home to the first Gothic cathedral in Spain, built during the 16th century. It is considered to be one of the world’s most beautiful examples of late Gothic architecture.

Entry requires a ticket, and there is often a long queue to get in. This is what stopped us, as we were only on a day trip. Better planning and we would have pre-reserved our ticket. Reserve your cathedral entrance ticket here.

Of all the magnificent medieval cathedrals we have seen in Spain, architecturally, the Segovia Cathedral is my favourite.

Alcazar of Segovia (a fairytale castle)

Think back to your childhood and visualize a medieval fairytale castle. This is the Segovia castle. However, it wasn’t a “fairytale” in medieval days. In the story that we were told, the original castle burnt to the ground in the 16th century.

The 19th-century rebuild created the fantasy rather than recreating the original. Many say this is the castle that inspired Walt Disney.

With limited time, we opted not to tour it but just to walk the grounds and enjoy a coffee in Alcazar’s cafe. Either way, a visit to the alcazar should be on everyone’s list of things to do in Segovia.

More things to do in Segovia Spain

Jewish Quarter

Jews first arrived in Segovia in the 13th century and lived in the district now referred to as the Jewish Quarter. The self-governing community thrived until the Spanish Inquisition, after which time only those Jews who converted to Catholicism were allowed to remain.

Many more churches in Segovia Spain

According to reader Kitat, the city maintains an important collection of Romanesque churches of both stone and brick, which include the churches of San Esteban, San Millán, San Martín, La Santísima Trinidad, San Andrés, San Clemente, Santos Justo y Pastor, La Vera Cruz, and San Salvador.

How to get from Madrid to Segovia

Segovia is only an hour’s drive northwest of Madrid, thus making it an easy day trip. We had a car included in our home exchange in Spain; therefore, we opted to self-drive and included Segovia on our Central Spain road trip. Other options include a train, a bus, or a tour.

Self-drive Madrid to Segovia

If we hadn’t swapped both car and home, we probably would have rented a car, as we prefer self-driving in countries where we speak enough of the language to get around successfully.

Ever since we discovered RentalCars.com, we have been using them exclusively. Easy to book online, we simply enter our pick-up and drop-off cities. Then, we are presented with a list of local rental outlets, including their ratings, reviews, and cars available that meet our needs.

To date, every booking has been exactly as expected, and when we had minor problems, we simply contacted the English-speaking customer service agents for assistance. Check price and availability at RentalCars.com

Tips for self-drivers from Madrid to Segovia

  • If you are self-driving, follow the directional road signs to find the aqueduct. We ignored them, choosing to follow our GPS instead. Don’t make this mistake; GPS took us to the side of the aqueduct without parking.
  • Arrive feeling hungry. This city is famous for pork roasts and desserts. Allocate time for a big meal at any of the restaurants in town.

My partner and I are doing a big Europe trip in 2020 and aswell with seeing some of those dream destinations like Barcelona I want to spend more time in less visited areas and this will be going on my list! The castle looks enchanting and it’s crazy to think only gravity is holding the Aqueduct up! Thanks for sharing!

    Segovia looks like such a gem! I was most taken with the aqueduct and the Cathedral a close second. I loved your photos and what great angles and perspectives you captured. It really helped to understand the gigantic scale and size of the aqueduct. I think it’s also interesting that the castle rebuilt in the 19th century is missing a certain charm compared to castles from the 16th century. Thanks for putting this city on my radar for when I return to Spain!

    Fantastic architecture is all very well. But a structure as cleverly designed and put together as the Aqueduct? That’s just mind-blowing! I think I’d take your advice and stay over in Segovia – I’d want to take more pix of the aqueduct than would fit in a day. That’d also give me PLENTY of time to discover all the quirky visual gags up above eye level 😀

We got to see the aqueduct, the cathedral and the alcazar but we had to rush a bit since we were visiting on a holiday and the train situation was very complicated. I could have stayed way longer. I didn’t have the opportunity to try the specialties of the area or visit La Granja. It would have to be next time. #wkendtravelinspiration

      It could be two things: licor de hierbas (herb liqueur) or orujo. If it was very very strong, it was the second one. In some “little” towns is still tradition to invite you to one of the two after a big meal. People say they will help you with the digestion.

    That is absolutely stunning! I love seeing remnants of past civilizations, and the reminder that they really weren’t quite so different from us, in either capability or need.

    I’ve not seen it and I’ve not been to Spain. I want to see America first before I even think about another country.

    Have a fabulous day. 🙂

    I loved Segovia when we visited in 2012! It is such a charming little city with so much to offer family travelers I’m glad to see it getting its due attention. The aqueduct is truly an amazing feat of engineering and test of time.
