Torre del Clavero, Gothic tower in Salamanca, Spain

The Torre del Clavero rises 28 meters with a square base that transforms into an octagonal structure decorated with cylindrical drums on each side.

Built in the 15th century, this tower formed part of the defensive fortifications and served as residence for the key keeper of the Order of Alcantara.

The architectural elements include coats of arms of the Sotomayor and Anaya families, along with blind arches and detailed cornices throughout the structure.

The tower, located at Calle Consuelo 34, currently houses offices of the Salamanca Provincial Government and hosts regular art exhibitions.

At 20 meters height, the tower transitions from its square base into an octagonal shape with eight decorative smaller towers at each angle.
