Presentation of Cea

The municipality of Cea (530 inhabitants in 2010; 1,234 ha; municipal website) is located in the southeast of León Province. The municipality is made of the villages of Cea (capital), Bustillo de Cea, Saelices del Río and San Pedro de Valderaduey.

Cea developed around a castle built in 866-879, with a three-storeyed tower added in the 15th century and still there. Of its seven sanctuaries recorded in the 16th century, the village has kept only the St. Mary church and the St. Martin hermitage. The medieval bridge over river Cea was rebuilt in 1638 by Pedro Cayón; eight-arched, the bridge was used in the 12th century by the busy road known as the "Old Sahagún Way".
Saelices del Río, named for the St. Felix (San Félix), was incorporated in 904 into the Sahagún monastery. In the middle of the 20th century, Saelices del Río was the seat of a municipality also including Bustillo de Cea.
The local hero of Cea is the athlete Margarita Ramos (b. 1966), holder of the national record in shot put (17.93 m).
