December 14, 2025, Castillo de Montánchez

It is located atop a hill in the Sierra de Montánchez, also known as the "balcony of Extremadura," at an altitude of approximately 700–900 meters above sea level. Founded on the site of an earlier Roman fortress, its main structure dates back to the Caliphate period of the 9th century (Almohad era). It preserves three underground cisterns built between the 11th and 13th centuries. Captured around 1156–1230, it passed to the Order of Santiago after being granted by Alfonso XI. Walls, a keep, and defensive enclosures were added. 17th century: A hermitage and an interior pond were added. In 1620, it served as a prison for Don Rodrigo Calderón.

It is located in the Plaza Mayor of Trujillo, on a granite pedestal. Although not its original location, this statue is an important symbol in the city where Pizarro was born.

Interesting statue for history buffs. The Pizarro family, all well-known sailors, originated in Trujillo. This unique statue was erected in the Plaza Mayor in memory of Francisco Pizarro.

The city of Trujillo, a town located about 50 km east of Cáceres, sits on a huge granite batholith, on the old road to Madrid. It is an important urban complex formed from different periods and architectural-urban mentalities, whose testimonies make it one of the most important towns in Extremadura, as far as architectural heritage is concerned.

In Las Atalayas, a neighborhood road that leads to Ibahernado, there are spectacular views that allow us to see and enjoy our town and its beautiful mountains.

Spectacular located on a hill at the top of the town that has the same name as the castle, Montánchez. It is worth going through its walls, all of which are straight.
