<p style=""text-align: justify;"">The remodeling project of this urban space was carried out by the architect Juan Gallo de Andrada who designed the a<strong>quadrangular square formed by five historic buildings: the Senior Schools, the Minor Schools, the Study Hospital, the House of the Queen's Doctors and the House of the Cats.</strong> The <strong> strong>Senior Schools</strong> have a beautiful plateresque façade that is famous for housing a frog sculpted on a skull. The <strong>Minor Schools</strong> are located in a corner of the complex and their layout reminds us of a religious cloister. In them we find a famous fresco that represents astronomical themes and was made in the 19th century. XV known as<strong>""The Heaven of Salamanca"". The Hospital was in operation from the 15th century to the 19th century and today houses the headquarters of the Rectorate of the University of Salamanca. The <strong>House of the Queen's Doctors</strong> belonged to to the Álvarez Abarca family of doctors in the 15th century and has a mixture of<strong>Gothic and Renaissance styles,</strong> currently it functions as the <strong>Museum of Salamanca</strong> with exhibitions on the Archeology and Fine Arts of the city. In the center of the square there is a <strong>statue of Fray Luis de León</strong> erected in 1869 and inspired by the figure of Aristotle from the painting ""The School of Athens"" by Raphael located in the Vatican Museums.</p> <p style=""text-align: justify;""> </p>
