We will know the exterior of the New and the Old, learning its peculiarities from different points of view. Strolling through the streets we will be surprised by the Puerta de Trujillo with a view of the Wall and the Puerta de Trujillo. View that D.

In the area of Knights and great lords two palaces: Palacio de los Monroy, also called Casa de las Dos Torres. This is one of the oldest stately buildings in Plasencia and where illustrious characters such as King Ferdinand the Catholic stayed and we will continue to the Palace of the Marquis of Mirabel.

Finally, we will approach the Plaza Mayor; the souk, the market, the life of the city. There we will say goodbye under the watchful eye of an illustrious placentino, Grandfather Mayorga.
