What you can expect

We will start the tour from the Activa Tours office, at Plaza Mayor number 38, Cáceres, a large space presided over by three magnificent towers known as: the Torre de la Hierba, the Torre de los Púlpitos and the Torre de Bujaco (inside); We will access the latter to discover the history of Cáceres, since it has a museum inside. In addition, we will be able to go up to the viewpoint to enjoy beautiful views of the Plaza Mayor.

We will continue towards the Arco de la Estrella, access point to the medieval part, we will arrive at the Plaza de Santa Maria, presided over by the spectacular Co-Cathedral of Santa María (inside), a sample of various styles developed in this city, such as the Romanesque, Gothic or Mudejar. In this square we can also discover the Palacio de los Golfines de Bajo, noted for its s. XVI, Plateresque style. Palace where the Catholic Monarchs stayed when they visited the city.

We will continue towards the Plaza de San Jorge, where the Church of San Francisco Javier (inside) rises, a prominent icon in the city due to its two white towers. We will access the interior, to be able to admire the canvas of the s. XVIII with images of San Francisco Javier in the main altarpiece.

We will also access the Provincial Museum of Cáceres (inside), where we will go down to the beautiful Arab cistern inside

We will cross the old Jewish quarter through the Plaza de las Veletas, until we reach the tower of the Baluarte de los Pozos; defensive tower from the Arab period, part of the Almohad fortress that the city once had.
