El Alto del Humilladero and Pico Villuercas, near Guadalupe (Cáceres), form one of the most spectacular mountain routes in Extremadura, within the Villuercas‑Ibores‑Jara UNESCO Geopark. It is the highest summit in Extremadura accessible by road.

During the twenties and thirties of the last century, a railway route was approved that was intended to connect Badajoz, Madrid, and Huelva, passing through Villanueva de la Serena and Talavera de la Reina. The rugged foothills of the Villuercas proved to be an insurmountable obstacle, leading to the project's abandonment three decades after its inception. As a reminder of that ill-fated project, today we are left with a grandiose viaduct at the gates of Guadalupe, crossing the broken valley of the Guadalupejo from end to end.

Gives the feeling of being on a film set or somewhere in Mexico. Perhaps not so strange, because the Virgin of Guadalupe is the patroness of Mexico. In the hills, the virgin is said to have been found seven centuries ago. Strictly forbidden to take photos inside the walls, monks walk with the group...

Arco del Tinte, the Verfpoort, was part of the network of gates that separated the upper and lower town at various points. This gave the population control over security and trade and gave the city the appearance of a medieval fortress.

An impressive piece of civil engineering from the 20th century. With a length of 274 meters and a maximum height of 58 meters, the bridge stands out with its large arches. Originally, the bridge was intended for the railway line, but the project was halted and the bridge was never put into use.

The Royal Monastery of Santa María de Guadalupe is a 14th-century monastery located in the Spanish town of Guadalupe, in the province of Cáceres. It was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1993. Inside, you can appreciate Gothic, Mudéjar, Renaissance, Baroque, and Neoclassical architectural styles. A place with a rich history and breathtaking architectural beauty! 🌟🏰

It is located between the upper and lower parts of Puebla, within the network of the historic center, near other archways and the medieval quarter. Its name comes from its original function: providing access to the old dye works, belonging to one of the oldest guilds in Puebla. It formed part of the defensive system and controlled trade between the main neighborhoods, offering security and projecting the image of a medieval fortress.
