Caceres and Mérida

Caceres stands out for its magnificent historical heritage, with emblematic buildings such as the Palacio de las Veletas, the Palacio de los Golfines or the Co-cathedral of Santa María, as well as places of interest such as the Plaza Mayor, the Plaza de Toros or the Palacio de las Cigüeñas. You can’t leave without visiting the Tres Culturas Medieval Market, held every November.

In July and August you have a date with culture in the city of Mérida, just 76 kilometres from Caceres. Every summer the International Classical Theatre Festival is held in the Roman Theatre of Mérida, a journey through classical literature with plays such as Julius Caesar and The Suppliants.
