Summer Camp in Salamanca
9 to 18 years old
Salamanca is a scenic, gorgeous city, declared the European Cultural Capital for 2002 and protected by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. This impressively maintained medieval town is also one of the most youthful areas in Spain; home to the second-oldest university in the world, it continues to attract international students from all corners of the globe.
The Colegio Calasanz is located within the old city walls, in the heart of the historic center with the whole town accessible by foot. The building itself is a prime example 19th century Castilla y León architecture, and is set in a lively area surrounded by other cultural sites of interest.
Facilities: The Colegio Calasanz is a typical building constructed around a tranquil courtyard in the shape of a U. The school’s 5 floors contain classrooms, a large conference room, a video room, a computer room, student residences, a dining hall and more.
The courtyard —a classic cloister— is visible from any of our center’s large, interior glass windows. The patio’s magnificent adornment and structure is complimented by an adjacent 16th century church, Las Bernardas. Considered some of the best examples of the Spanish Plateresque style, these architectural gems are only accessible to those who attend our center! Behind the church, there is an extensive sports facility which includes a football (soccer) field, a basketball court, a handball court, a frontón (Basque handball court), a volleyball court, an in-line skating rink and more. Students also have access to a separate, nearby swimming pool.
Capacity: 250 residential students.
Accommodation: Rooms at the Colegio Calasanz are double rooms, fully furnished with beds, a wardrobe and shelves. A washbasin is located in each room and shared bathroom/showers are dispersed throughout the two floors of the residential part of the building.
