The Plaza del Coso, an urban plaza in the locality of PeÃÂ±afiel in the autonomous Spanish community of Castile and LeÃÂ³n, serves during the year as a bullring during the Festival of San Roque in August, and provides a place for the Descent of the Angel Festival Bajada del ÃÂngel, on Resurrection Sunday. The square is commonly known as `Corro` or `Corro of the Bulls`, and has been documented as existing since the Middle Ages. The square is surrounded by 48 buildings, is accessed by two streets, and has an area of 3,500 m2. The balconies of the plaza are lintelled and were built between the 18th and 19th centuries. The balconies, made from wood and decorated with arabesque, have been used since their creation to watch the shows.
