  • Casa y Torre de la Cigüeña

    One of the few remaining icons of Cáceres’ golden age in the 14th and 15th centuries, this slender battlement tower belonging to the House of the Stork was allowed to remain intact after Isabel’s decree to destroy most of the battlements in Cáceres due to the owner’s loyalty to Isabel during the Spanish war of succession. The Spanish army now owns it.
