The Last Temple and the South Sea

This imposing citadel of Arab origin was renovated by the Order of the Temple in the 13th century. Its most famous element is the Bloody Tower, scene of the legend of the end of the Templars in the city. From its walls you can get the best views of the Extremadura pasture. Today it is a landscaped area that invites you to stroll through centuries of military history and mysticism.

It is the jewel of the Jerez baroque. Its facade and tower are a burst of color thanks to the glazed ceramics, brick and plaster. Originally built in the 15th century and later enlarged, it stands out for its exuberant exterior decoration that shines under the Extremaduran sun. It is, without a doubt, one of the most photogenic and unique towers in the entire province of Badajoz.

Located in the Plaza de España, this church stands out for its high tower of Andalusian baroque style, inspired by the Giralda of Seville. The temple combines Gothic and Baroque elements, housing in its interior a beautiful altarpiece and exceptional acoustics. Its silhouette dominates the skyline of the city, recalling the religious and civil power of its golden age.

This museum is located in the birthplace of the conquistador who discovered the Pacific Ocean. Through interactive rooms and objects of the time, visitors learn about the life of this illustrious character and the importance of Jerez de los Caballeros in the Age of Discovery. It is a fascinating journey to the 16th century that highlights the transoceanic legacy of this town in Extremadura.
