On Tuesday 12th November at 11.00am at the Jávea Players Studio in Jávea, Keith Smith will tell the fascinating story of the two Spanish sisters who became Queens but whose lives were touched by intrigue and tragedy.
In the late 15th Century the Spanish Catholic Monarchs, Isabel and Ferdinand, used their children to create a complex web of alliances mainly to curtail the power of France.
Two of their daughters, Catalina and Juana, became Queens, but neither got to rule for long as they were deceived by the powerful male members of their families.
This presentation outlines their lives and attempts to answer controversial questions that are still asked of them.
For more details, please contact Ally O’Brien on history@u3ajavea.com. There is a small charge of €2 to cover the cost of the venue.
