Origins and Founding of the University of Salamanca (1130–1134)

The University of Salamanca, like many of Europe's oldest centers of learning, traces its origins to a Cathedral School, which was already in existence by 1130. These ecclesiastical institutions served as the primary centers of higher education before the formal establishment of universities.

In 1134, the University of Salamanca was officially founded, marking the beginning of its transformation into one of the most prestigious academic institutions in the Iberian Peninsula. Over time, it would grow into a major center for scholarly and theological studies, playing a crucial role in the intellectual and cultural development of medieval Spain.
