In 2011, the redevelopment and remodeling works of the Plaza Mayor were completed, led by architects Antonino Antequera, Francisco Pol Méndez and Asunción Rodríguez Montejano. The project included the creation of several spaces, such as the Summer Plaza, a shady place with trees and fountains; the Winter Square, flanked by a fountain wall and a continuous stone bench; the new Music Forum, in the Balbos Forum, next to the Town Hall, for chamber concerts; and a large central free space for events, whose pavement formally recalls the vernacular Cáceres brick vault, and which has water fountains to combat the summer heat.
If you visit Cáceres, you cannot miss exploring this emblematic Plaza Mayor and admiring its rich history and architecture.

Not to be missed, the Plaza Mayor has bars and restaurants and deserves a good place to take a break or end any adventure. An excellent location to see the outstanding Torre del Horno.
