The Bridge of Philip IV in Medellín (Badajoz, Extremadura) is one of the most emblematic historical bridges over the Guadiana River.
Built in the 17th century during the reign of Philip IV, it was constructed to improve communication between the town of Medellín and the surrounding region.
It replaced earlier structures and became a strategic point for trade and transit in the area.

Historic enclave. In summer there is a beach bar area, where you can stop and eat a roast chicken, and a grassy bathing area.
