Pool-watering hole that, like others that have already disappeared (Charca de los Mártires, La Bala, El Rodeo, etc.), was located in the surroundings of Cáceres next to the most important communication routes. It was previously called "Charca del Espíritu Santo" and the name change was due, according to what is said, to the fact that in its surroundings there was a hostess place run by "Uncle Musia". The neighboring industrial estate and the nearby neighborhoods are also known by that name.
The Vía de la Plata, after leaving the CIMOV, would pass through the vicinity of Charca Musia, it would cross the current Medellín highway to continue through the Ermita del Espíritu Santo, Ronda de San Francisco, etc.
La Charca Musia y sus alrededores constituían, hasta hace poco, uno de los espacios más degradados de la periferia cacereña. A partir de diciembre de 2004 ha sido objeto de un proyecto de intervención para su recuperación integral. El Proyecto está englobado en el “Plan Urban -Calerizo” que también afecta a Fuente Fría y a la Charca del Marco.
