Los pilares del tiempo. El Cid: la ruta del campeador

Televisión

Year: 2022

Director: Antonio López Pulido, Ana Pecos Palacios

Producer: Modesto Rubio

The first mercenary, the exiled, the ungovernable Cid Campeador passed through places full of legends and history. With the help of the 3D scanner, we visit emblematic places in his life following the route indicated in the “Cantar del Mio Cid”, where the life and exploits of Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar are narrated. We begin at the National Library in Madrid, where this treasure of literature is kept in the vault under maximum security. We travel to Burgos to visit the Cathedral where part of the remains of El Cid and his wife Jimena rest. It is said that the first place to which they were transferred is the Monastery of San Pedro de Cardeña, where we know the legend of the coming and going of the Cid’s remains. In Cullera Castle, we learn about his battles against the Muslims. And we arrive in Valencia to visit his Cathedral, where the Cid’s first burial took place.
