Image of Puebla del Salvador, not of the place itself.

Emperor Charles V and the then Prince Philip, later Philip II, spent the night in the town on 19 December 1542, as their procession made its way towards Madrid. The stay was recorded by the court chronicler Juan de Vandenesse, and has been studied in the work by Manuel Martínez Tórtola titled Un alto en el camino: el emperador Carlos V en Puebla del Salvador.
