Puente de San Francisco, Cáceres

Highlight • Bridge

The San Francisco Bridge in Cáceres is a historic structure that has undergone several transformations over the years. Originally built in the 16th century, this medieval bridge is located in the eastern part of the city, on the old road to Trujillo. The bridge was built to level the terrain of a promenade next to the San Francisco convent and was adorned with two rows of black poplars planted in 1752.

Olleta Quarry

Highlight • Structure

This quarry has been disused since the beginning of the 2000s and has had several disputes with the Cáceres city council.
We can look at this vestige of the past and also reflect on the possible environmental impact it may have.
