The Puerto Real Campus is one of the four campuses housing the University of Cádiz. It is located at the municipal limits of Puerto Real (Cádiz), together with the San Pedro river and the neighborhood of the same name. It is located within Bahía de Cádiz Natural Park. It is well-connected with all the localities in the bay of Cádiz and several nearby (Jerez, Sanlúcar, Chipiona, Arcos and the white towns of the mountain range, accessibly by bus or commuter train.

The Battle of Cádiz (1640) was a naval battle in the Franco-Spanish War (1635-1659), which took place on July 21, 1640, when a French squadron under Jean Armand de Maillé-Brézé attacked a Spanish convoy coming from the Americas. The attack occurred just in front of the coast of Cádiz. Armand de Breze employed a hitherto unknown tactic to attack the Spanish convoy from both sides. The Spanish lost a galleon and a small vessel but the convoy completed its journey and delivered most of its cargoes including its silver bullion. French losses are unknown.

The Bay of Cádiz is a body of water in the province of Cádiz, Spain, adjacent to the southwestern coast of the Iberian Peninsula. The Bay of Cádiz adjoins the Gulf of Cádiz, a larger body of water which is in the same area but further offshore.

The Pylons of Cádiz, also known as the Towers of Cádiz, are two 158 m (518 ft)-tall pylons supporting a double-circuit 132 kV three-phase AC powerline over the bay of Cádiz, Spain, running from Puerto Real Substation to the substation of the former Cádiz Thermal Power Station, situated on the peninsula upon which the city of Cádiz stands.

San Pedro is a small stream in the province of Cádiz, Spain, close to Guadalete river. It runs for 25 km into the Bay of Cádiz. It flows by Bahía de Cádiz Natural Park.

La Cachucha beach (from Spanish Playa de la Cachucha) is a beach located in Puerto Real, Spain. It's 500 meters long with golden and fin-grain sand. Nowadays the beach needs periodics sand nourishments because natural conditions were modified. The beach is protected from the waves by two dikes. Every day when the tide is low, there is a large extension of mud where you can see many crabs and protected birds that feed on the seaside.

Torres de la Casería de Ossio is a complex of three towers of sixteen floors located in San Fernando in the Province of Cádiz, Andalusia, Spain. As of 2013 it is the tallest building in the city, surpassing the Hospital Militar de San Carlos by several metres when built in 2007.

Puente Marqués de Ureña is a bridge located in San Fernando in the Province of Cádiz, Andalusia, Spain. It was built in the 18th century in honour of the Marqués de Ureña.

The Constitution of 1812 Bridge, also known as La Pepa Bridge (El puente de la Constitución de 1812 or Puente de La Pepa in Spanish), is a new bridge across the Bay of Cadiz, linking Cadiz with Puerto Real in mainland Spain. Cadiz's first bridge, the Carranza bridge, was inaugurated in 1969, and is now crossed by some 40,000 vehicles per day. In 1982 the Spanish government accepted the need for a second bridge. It has two 180 m pylons, one in the sea and the other in Cabezuelas Harbour, a 540-meter span and 69 meters of vertical clearance. The bridge also includes a 150-meter removal span. It is the second bridge that crosses over to Cádiz from the mainland, after Carranza bridge, and one of the highest bridges in Europe, with a gauge of 69 meters and a total length of 5 kilometers. It is the third access to the city, along with the isthmus San Fernando and the Carranza bridge. Given the large width of the deck, it will be a high capacity bridge: a motorway with two lanes in each direction and two lanes reserved for metropolitan public transport such as the Cádiz Bay tram-train. The bill was drafted by the civil engineer Javier Manterola. The works were scheduled for completion in 2012, coinciding with the bicentenary of the Spanish Constitution of 1812, which was drafted in Cádiz. However, due to cuts in public works resulting from the economic crisis at the time, the work was more than three years late. By summer 2013 work had progressed but at a slower pace. As of early 2014 work progressed at a good pace, highlighting the installation of its cable-stayed span and the hiring of more daily staff (including night shifts). As of the first half of 2015, the bridge structure was completed, with full completion in September of the same year.As data highlights: The earlier draft described an arch bridge whose total length was 2.355 km. The total length of the current project, viaducts and links is 5 kilometers: 3096 meters on the bridge of which 1655 meters will be over the sea, with a main span of 540 meters record of Spain, with one hundred meters more than the bridge engineer Carlos Fernández Casado, the famous civil engineer, the reservoir Barrios de Luna. Besides the vain is the third largest in Europe suspended class, after Rio-Antirio Bridge and Normandy Bridge. The maximum height above the sea level is 69 meters, with two pylons of 187 meters, making it one of the tallest bridges in Europe. They are 30 meters higher than the pylons between both sides of the bay.The bridge connects the San Pedro River (district) in Puerto Real with the |neighborhood of La Paz in Cadiz.

José León de Carranza Bridge (also referred to as the Carranza Bridge) is a 1400 m steel bridge that connects the city of Cádiz to the mainland. The bridge goes over the Bay of Cádiz. It forms part of the national network of roads with the number N-443. It is the older of the two bridges crossing to the city of Cádiz, the second being La Pepa Bridge to the north. This bridge is also one of the longest bascule bridges in Europe.

Hospital Militar de San Carlos is a hospital located in San Fernando in the Province of Cádiz, Andalusia, Spain. Construction of the original hospital building took place by the Franciscans in February 1809, during the war of independence, but the current building was completed in 1981. Located next to the Panteón de Marinos Ilustres, it was the tallest building in San Fernando until the Torres de la Casería de Ossio surpassed it by several metres.

The Pantheon of Illustrious Sailors (Spanish: Panteón de Marinos Ilustres) is a mausoleum and memorial to all the mariners of the Spanish Navy, especially prominent ones, and to the Spanish Navy and all its ships, battles and explorations in general. The term Pantheon is a concession to the generally prevalent and popular style of neoclassical architecture, which is supposed to have begun explicitly in the 18th century, but was in use long before then in the Renaissance, a "rebirth" of classical civilization, especially in decorative ornamentation. The application of "Pantheon" in this case is entirely superficial. The building is composed of two layers: a Catholic church to which a cemetery has been added by enclosure and roofing. The church projects above the roof of the building, while the cemetery appears as projections off the nave. The philosophic term Pantheon comes from a different, polytheistic religion. Etymologically, it refers to a panoply of "all the gods." Christianity, however, is considered a monotheistic religion, despite the Trinitarian subdivision of divinity into three persons. As each person is fully God, and is not lessened by division, the Trinity is described as a mystery. The application of the term to the building, however, is entirely architectural. The Spanish architects who assigned the term believed they were creating a type of building, which, in the 18th and 19th centuries, was termed a Pantheon, because of the central dome. The earliest extant instance of a large domed structure is the Pantheon of Rome. Originally a pagan temple, it utilized the principle of the arch to support a heaven-like surface over a public chamber, the rotunda. Geometrically a dome is an arch rotated about a central axis, so whatever load-bearing advantage an arch has is multiplied over the dome. The Roman Pantheon survived because it was quickly converted into a Christian church, like many other pagan public buildings. Domes became a standard feature of state and religious buildings thereafter. Their sudden labelling as Pantheons in the 18th century is no doubt a neoclassicism, and there are others, such as a few frontal columns. The architecture, however, is primarily church architecture, none of which dates to classical times.
