Presentation of Entrala

The municipality of Entrala (162 inhabitants in 2009; 1,000 ha) is located in the south of Zamora Province, 10 km from Zamora.
The name of the village probably comes from entrar, "to enter", recalling that Entrala was the last village before the entrance of Zamora on the famous Silver Way.
