Historic Sites of Extremadura

Extremadura preserves some of Spain's most significant archaeological and architectural treasures. This selection features the UNESCO-listed Roman colony of Augusta Emerita in Mérida, including its remarkably intact theatre, amphitheatre, and aqueducts. Beyond Roman history, the list includes the Moorish alcazabas of Badajoz and Trujillo, the Gothic-Renaissance Palace of Zafra, and the Royal Monastery of Santa María de Guadalupe. These sites document the region's transition from a strategic Roman provincial capital to a frontier of Islamic and Christian medieval power.
