Independence Avenue
The Independence Avenue extends from Plaza de España to Plaza de Paraíso, passing through Plaza de Aragón, three central points of the city of Saragossa. This central location makes it a strategic and busy place.
Independence Avenue has a rich history. During the 19th century, it witnessed important historical events, including the War of Independence against the Napoleonic occupation. Thus, its name refers to the War of Independence during which the city suffered several sieges, and the avenue became a symbol of the fight for independence from Spain.
