Simple bullring that was inaugurated on April 15, 1945. A simple-style arena, with capacity to accommodate 3,500 spectators in its stands.

Built over the Tagus River near the current Alcántara, in the province of Cáceres, the Alcántara bridge is one of the most beautiful and important examples of Roman civil engineering. Despite being shorter than the one in Mérida and with fewer arches, it is much higher and above all more impressive. The complex is made up of three very different parts: the bridge, the central triumphal arch and a small rectangular temple measuring 5.60 x 4.10 metres. This building consists of a staircase, two Tuscan columns, an entablature and a classical pediment. A restored plaque indicates the name of its builder and reminds us that the bridge will last “as long as the world lasts”:

The Alcántara Bridge, of Roman origin, was built between the years 104 and 106 and declared, in 1924, an Asset of Cultural Interest with the category of Monument. It stands out, above all, for its grandeur and for the firmness that it preserves today, almost intact despite being almost two thousand years old. Its 58.20 meters high and 194 meters long make it a beautiful work, halfway between engineering and art.

Santiago de Alcántara is a municipality in the province of Cáceres located on the outskirts of the Tagus International Natural Park.
