We’ll be waiting for you in the Plaza de Santa María, in front of the door of the Co-cathedral, to start our tour of the Monumental Complex of Cáceres. Did you know that it is considered one of the best preserved in Europe?
Follow us and we’ll tell you the history of the civilisations that once lived within its walls: Arabs, Christians, Jews… Their legacy still survives in every corner.
Our steps will take us to wonderful palaces such as the Golfines de Abajo, the Carvajal Palace, the Toledo-Moctezuma Palace (home of the daughter of the Aztec emperor Moctezuma II) or the Palace of Las Veletas (which houses the Museum of Cáceres and the second largest water cistern in the world).
Surely you have already had the opportunity to take many wonderful photographs, but what about giving your palate a treat? We’ll talk about typical dishes of Extremaduran cuisine: migas, chanfaina, Iberian ham… We’ll leave you with the best recommendations.
How many towers do you imagine we have in Cáceres? We will see many beautiful ones, but the most famous of them all is the Bujaco Tower; not only is it a true symbol of the city, it is also a reminder of the Andalusian period. We will then cross the Plaza Mayor, surrounded by beautiful 16th century arcades, which today is the nerve centre of the city, full of life, restaurants and people of all ages.
After a visit of approximately two and a half hours, we will finish by the Arco de la Estrella, the most famous arch of the city.
