The pillory of Cebreros

Monument · Cebreros, Burgohondo - El Tiemblo - Cebreros, Ávila

Image of Cebreros, not of the place itself.

Raised around 1562, the year in which the villa freed itself from the jurisdiction of Ávila, this column of justice bears four carved figures —a woman, a man, a ram and a monkey— whose reading is still disputed.
