It is a flanking tower from the mid-twelfth century, with a Roman base made of granite ashlars, believed to have been the beginning of a wall, which would divide the city into two zones, linking this tower with Los Pozos Tower.
Its name comes from the fact that the city’s bread ovens used to be very close to
it; the main oven of the city was actually attached to the tower. Also in its vicinity was the Cáceres granary, which was where wheat used to be stored.
Recommendations: Located in the popular Plaza de las Piñuelas, behind the Town Hall, you have an impressive view of the Balbos Forum and the Main Plaza from the base of this tower.
