About us



Alojamiento MoneHeritage, the pleasure of relaxing in another era. Sophistication, simplicity, and history come together to recreate a stay worthy of the Belle Époque.


MoneoHeritage is a unique and personal accommodation, nestled in a family building dating back to 1905. Illusion and a personal vision are the premises that guided us to recover a living element of Salamanca's modernism, a space designed for guests who enjoy the experience of staying and immersing themselves in a setting forged in the Belle Époque. To achieve this, we base our motto on: "21st-century relaxation and comfort at the disposal of travelers inspired by 19th-century romanticism."

Our Story



MoneoHeritage, a tourist accommodation, is designed as a welcoming and immersive space in the heart of Salamanca. From here, one can connect not only with the city's historical and cultural attractions, but also with the living history of our own past. This space was conceived by the son of the building's owners, Miguel Hernández Herrera, a descendant of two branches of the family that helped shape this city. His intention is none other than to honour and bring into the present those ancestors who introduced the new elements of industrial progress to Salamanca. From the earliest moments of his awareness, cradled by stories and anecdotes, he grew up under the influence of his grandmother, Julia Pérez-Moneo Mañosa, widow of Herrera. Through her kind tales, he came to learn about a fascinating time, a space full of figures of change, such as the arrival of the railway, industrialisation, and the creation of factory complexes. A life that spanned a century in which his grandmother was deeply immersed at its very core.

Daughter of one of the prominent men of her time, Vicente Pérez-Moneo Bande, an engineer who graduated in Lille, France, at the end of the 19th century, she later returned to Salamanca to take the helm of the family business, La Fundición Moneo, which is revived through this project. A woman of her era, a Moneo who, through her marriage to another prominent industrial family, the Herrera family, well-known tanners of Salamanca, was able to instil in her a love for her time, filling her childhood with lessons and affection. This formed the foundation of the person she is today, and of this singular space she has created for the rest and integration of 21st-century travellers.

Miguel, as a lover of art and history, strives to create an immersive space for all those who enjoy enveloping themselves in and diving into that world of the past — of elegance and sophistication, of classes and emotions, of romantic ideals, adventure, and mystery. Therefore, it is a pleasure for us to accompany you on this journey, which will lead you to discover one of the faces of the wonderful city of Salamanca — that Salamanca that lives today in our memory, that Salamanca that rests hidden in these walls and streets, that Salamanca that spans time and merges with another era, both the past and present Salamanca, of which we are still in love.
