Olmedo, Medieval municipality in Valladolid Province, Spain.

The municipality of Olmedo extends across 129 square kilometers of terrain at an elevation of 740 meters in the Castile and León region.

During the Middle Ages, Olmedo maintained a Jewish community until 1492, when the expulsion decree forced their departure from the Spanish territories.

The municipality contains multiple architectural elements from different periods, including Romanesque and Gothic structures that reflect the evolution of regional building techniques.

The N-601 road connects Olmedo with major regional destinations, while a high-speed rail service provides transportation links to Zamora and Galicia.

A 14.4-kilometer test track for high-speed trains runs through Olmedo, serving as a technical development site for Spanish railway infrastructure.
