Don Benito is a very interesting destination in the province of Badajoz. Founded in the 15th century, it grew after the depopulation of Don Llorente due to flooding of the Guadiana River. Its name comes from Don Benito Velázquez Dávila, who donated land for the settlement. Today it is one of the largest municipalities in Spain (561 km²) and the economic center of the Vegas Altas region.

Great views, quiet country roads, getting to know Medellín by bike is a different story.

The Magacela dolmen, also known as the Cerca del Marzo dolmen, is located northeast of Magacela, near Don Benito. This impressive megalithic monument dates back to the Chalcolithic period and is a fascinating testament to the region's history. The dolmen consists of a round chamber built with 12 granite blocks. The average height of the orthostats is 1.75 meters, and two entrance blocks exceed 2 meters in height. Five of the stones are engraved on the interior, including an eleven-ray solar motif and a vertical feathered motif unique to the Iberian Peninsula. In addition, there are several bowls at the bottom of the stone. Although the original corridor has not been preserved, research indicates that it was approximately 9 meters in length. Several hypotheses about the old roof are debated, such as a false dome, a large stone slab or a wooden roof. Although the corridor has sadly disappeared, the dolmen chamber remains an impressive vestige of the past. Definitely worth a visit! 😊

Located in the province of Badajoz, it is a place with a rich history and tourist attractions. In addition, Don Benito offers wide avenues, green areas such as the “Tierno Galván” Municipal Park and cultural and sporting events. I hope you enjoy your visit! 😊
