Amoreira Aqueduct

Highlight • Monument

Near Elvas is an enormous aqueduct, the Aqueduto da Amoreira. It took 100 years before the aqueduct was completed in 1622. The aqueduct has 4 floors and is 7 km long. The columns and 843 arches cross the valley, so to speak, and look quite spectacular. The Elvas Aqueduct still supplies water to the fountain in a large square.

Badajoz

Highlight • Settlement

Badajoz is a spectacular city not only because of its large number of architectural elements, streets and spaces close to the Río Guadiana but because you can observe a large number of styles. Of Muslim heritage, the capital has Arab strongholds combined with Catholic churches and modern buildings.

Alcazaba of Badajoz

Highlight • Castle

Located in the highest part of Badajoz, it was originally built in the year 875 by the hand of Abd-al-Ramman Ibn Marwan "El Yilliqui" and being modified and completed by the different governments that succeeded in the city. Its current configuration is basically the product of the largest reform carried out and that it underwent in the 12th century at the hands of the Almohads, although its greatest period of splendor was in the 11th century during the Aftasid Dynasty.
