Zamora Province, Administrative province in western Castile and León, Spain

This Spanish territory spans across 10,620 square kilometers with diverse landscapes including river valleys, hills, and natural lakes near the Portuguese border.

The region developed from megalithic settlements through Celtic tribes and Roman colonization, which established important trade routes and military infrastructure.

The province contains 250 municipalities that maintain local traditions, with the capital Zamora housing 24 Romanesque churches from the 12th and 13th centuries.

Agriculture forms the economic foundation of the region, specializing in sheep farming, merino wool production, and vineyard cultivation in terraced slopes.

The Sanabria Lake Natural Park features one of Spain's largest natural lakes, while Villafáfila's lagoons provide habitat for numerous bird species.
