Casar de Cáceres

Cáceres, a short distance from the provincial capital, is an obligatory stop for foodies on the Via de la Plata. This town is worldwide famous for being the birthplace of the Torta del Casar, a creamy cheese made from sheep's milk with Protected Designation of Origin, considered a genuine culinary gem. Pilgrims can visit the Cheese Museum and various cheeseries to learn about its production and, of course, taste it. In addition to its gastronomic appeal, the locality preserves traditional architecture and offers all necessary services. It is the perfect apéritif before arriving at the monumental city of Cáceres, an experience for the palate that greatly enriches the Jacobean journey.
