King Wamba and the claim for his remains

Curiosity · Pampliega, Arlanza, Burgos

Wamba withdrew and died in the monastery of San Vicente, now vanished, until Alfonso X took his body to Toledo. The village dedicates to him a monolith, a street and a square, and in 2014 formally requested the return of his remains.
