The University of Salamanca (Spanish： Universidad de Salamanca) is a Spanish higher education institution， located in the town of Salamanca， west of Madrid.

It was run and financed by royal and papal concessions throughout the Middle Ages until the 1869， when the Salamanca town council took the faculties of Medicine and Science under its wing. It was named a Great University in 1254， and was consequently given more privileges and administrative and academic independence. It is the oldest university in Spain and the third oldest European university in continuous operations.
