Vitoria is the capital of the Basque Country autonomous community and is located in northern Spain. Historically it has been a strategic enclave at a cultural, commercial and military level, being a place of passage on the Roman road that linked Astorga and Bordeaux. The city has a great monumental heritage that is worth knowing if you are going to visit the province of Alava.
