Founded by Cardinal Jiménez de Cisneros in the early 16th century, Alcalá
de Henares was the world's first planned university city. It was the
original model for the Civitas Dei (City of God), the ideal urban
community which Spanish missionaries brought to the Americas. It also
served as a model for universities in Europe and elsewhere.
