Mausoleum of the Lovers of Teruel

The tomb of Diego de Marcilla and Isabel de Segura, the 'Lovers of Teruel', Spain's Romeo and Juliet. The story goes that Diego went away to make his fortune so he could marry Isabel, but returned a few days too late to find her married to another. He died of a broken heart, and she died the next day at his funeral. Their mummified remains lie in alabaster tombs carved with their figures, their hands almost touching.

The museum tells the legend and its influence on art and literature. It's next to the Church of San Pedro, whose Mudéjar tower and cloister are on the same ticket. Teruel celebrates the legend each February.
