In addition to the Palace of the Marqués de Santa Cruz, which is a Renaissance jewel built between 1564 and 1586 by the Spanish sailor Álvaro de Bazán, Viso del Marqués is home to other places of interest:

Church of Our Lady of the Assumption: This Gothic-Renaissance style church has a central nave offset from the presbytery, built on the remains of a previous church. On its walls, you will find the curious “Lagarto del Viso”, a stuffed crocodile brought from the Nile by the Marquis during one of his expeditions.

Plaza del Pradillo: The center of the town is surrounded by the Marqués Palace, the Church of Our Lady of the Assumption and the Tower of the old convent.

AVAN Natural Sciences Museum: An interesting place to explore nature and biodiversity.

Hermitage of San Andrés and forest park of the Valle de los Perales: A natural environment where you can enjoy the beauty of the Sierra de Viso del Marqués

Viso del Marqués is a destination full of history and charm! 🏰🌿
