The university college that never was

Historical milestone · Villaescusa de Haro, La Mancha Conquense, Cuenca

Image of Villaescusa de Haro, not of the place itself.

Diego Ramírez de Villaescusa founded here a college with the intention of turning it into a university. The death of Isabella the Catholic in 1504 and cardinal Cisneros's commitment to Alcalá de Henares left the project halted forever.
