Alan Oliver
I have a scientific background, having given up history in the fourth form, and worked in the timber, building and railway industries. Since coming to Spain, I have taken an interest in Spanish History, and have been fortunate in obtaining many Guest Lecturing assignments on cruise ships, as well as U3A’s and History groups, covering Scientific and Historical topics.
The Romanov's 1613 to 1918
The dynasty was established in 1613 when Mikhail 1 was proclaimed Tsar. His prominent successors were Peter the Great, Catherine the Great, and Alexander 1. The dynasty abruptly concluded with the assassination of Nicholas 11 in 1918.
Parking is available in the car park, which is signposted, and in adjacent roads.
PLEASE NOTE: The Ayuntamiento has requested that nobody park on the main road.
