1. Plaza Mayor De Caceres
Set off at the Main Square, the economic and cultural hub of the ancient city. The square is home to a series of arcades where merchants, artisans, shoppers, and tourists gather in a lively market. The spacious site is also a gorgeous showcase of period architecture with many emblematic monuments such as the Town Hall, La Paz Hermitage, the Defensive City Walls, and the Tower of Bujaco, the highlight of all.
Duration: 15 mins
2. Torre de Bujaco
Stop in front of the 12th-century Tower of Bujaco, the most famous Moorish tower in the city. The impressive military structure witnessed many fierce history-making battles among the reigns fighting over the city. It also houses the Interpretation Centre of Three Cultures, symbolizing the city’s diverse culture.
Duration: 15 mins
3. Arco de la Estrella (Star Arch)
Enter through the 15th-century Star Arch, a main entrance to the Old Town. The gate features a beautiful statue of the Virgen de la Estrella on the inner face and bears the coat of arms of Cáceres on the outside to welcome visitors to the jewel of the Old Town.
Duration: 15 mins
4. Old Town of Caceres
Explore the maze of steep stairways and winding cobbled paths in the Old Town to discover a wealth of monuments built by the Romans, Moorish, Jewish, and Christians. The atmospheric town declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1986 is an outstanding testament of medieval architecture, so stunning and authentic that it was a familiar setting of the period series Games of Thrones.
