The plateresque façade of this place is famous all over the world. The filigree work contains symbolic imagery that gives rise to numerous legends. If you can identify the image of a frog, you're sure to have good luck, so the story goes. The university's treasures include fabulous tapestries in the central hall, staircases with plateresque reliefs, paintings by Juan de Flandes in the high gallery and Europe's first university library.
