Nowhere is the relationship between centre and periphery more marked than in such citadels.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-725\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intothesquare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/IMG_2308.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intothesquare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/IMG_2308.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.intothesquare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/IMG_2308-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.intothesquare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/IMG_2308-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"617\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intothesquare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Ciudad-rodrigo-e1560972246514.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-724\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intothesquare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Ciudad-rodrigo-e1560972246514.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.intothesquare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Ciudad-rodrigo-e1560972246514-300x185.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.intothesquare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Ciudad-rodrigo-e1560972246514-768x474.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.intothesquare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Ciudad-rodrigo-e1560972246514-825x510.jpg 825w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This town took its name from Count Rodrigo Gonz\u00e1lez Gir\u00f3n.
