Best Luxury Hotels In Cáceres

Part of the Spanish region of Extremadura, Cáceres is known for its historic old town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Surrounded by fortifications that date from the 12th century, it contains well-preserved medieval, Roman, Moorish, Gothic and Renaissance buildings, such as the Palace of the Golfines de Abajo, the Palace of Carvajal and the Palace of Toledo-Moctezuma. The Casa-Museo Árabe, a museum dedicated to Islamic art and culture, is another popular visitor attraction. Try some traditional dishes while you’re in town; the migas (fried breadcrumbs), cordero al chilindrón (lamb stew) and torta del Casar are especially good.
