Some selected fragments of Isabel

Here you have some fragments of the TV series Isabel. They show some important moments of the Catholic Monarchs' reign. I recommend you to watch the whole series, because it's an extraordinary work and historically accurate. On RTVE.es website, you can also find a lot of extra explanations about the period, curiosities and a complete familiy tree to know the most important figures of the period.
