Monumental city and World Heritage Site on the Via Flaminia. Its well-preserved medieval and Renaissance old town transports the pilgrim to another era.

Discover Cáceres

Cáceres, one of the jewels of the Via de la Plata, offers the pilgrim one of the most fascinating urban experiences on the Way of St. James. Its monumental city, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, is an extraordinarily well-preserved medieval and Renaissance ensemble, a maze of cobblestone streets, palaces, fortified houses, and towers that transport the traveler back to the era of conquerors. The pilgrim enters the old town through the Arch of the Star, opening up to the majestic Plaza de Santa María, with its cathedral. Exploring the Plaza de San Jorge, climbing to the Torre de Bujaco for a view or visiting the Hispano-Moorish well in the Palacio de las Veletas are indispensable experiences. The city is full of legends and history. For the walker, Cáceres is an oasis of culture and services, with cozy hostels and rich Extremaduran cuisine, where the Torta del Casar and Iberian products stand out. It's a mandatory stop for rest and cultural enrichment, a milestone that leaves a deep mark on the pilgrim's memory.
