The Parador de Zafra is located in what was once the palace of the Dukes of Feria. The building is a clear example of its long and rich history, which includes the discoverer from Extremadura, Hernán Cortés, an illustrious guest of the palace.
The Parador preserves beautiful coffered ceilings, chests, ironwork, handrails and decorative elements from the old palace.

Hiking

A place that you have to visit if you are in Zafra. Today it is a parador but this beautiful castle in the center of the urban area was the palace of the Dukes of Feria. Of fortress origin and its walled fortress of a Muslim character, its nine original towers crowned with battlements undoubtedly attract attention.
