Zaragoza is the regional capital of Aragon.  It started life as a Celtiberian settlement called Salduba.  The Romans then settled in the area and it became known by the Roman name Cesar Augusta.  Built on the banks of the River Ebro, the fertile banks provided the city with an abundance of food, enabling it to grow into what is now Spain's fifth largest city.  Zaragoza suffered badly in Spain's war of independence and was extensively rebuilt.  Some of the earlier remains survived the war, the most impressive being the Basillica de Nuestra Señora del Pilar. Some of the city's Roman walls are still standing opposite the Plaza del Pilate.  There are other historic places of interest worth visiting including churches and museums.
