VELETAS SQUARE

PLAZA DE LAS VELETAS
Film Cáceres

The Veletas square is located in the highest part of the Monumental City of Cáceres.

A small square in which the Palacio de las Veletas is located, which currently houses the Museum of Cáceres, and which holds a great treasure: the best preserved Spanish-Muslim cistern in Spain and one of the best in the world.  This site, which is now occupied by the Palacio de las Veletas and the Casa de los Caballos, was previously used for the Arab Alcazaba. Proof of this is its 11th-12th century cistern. The rest of what can now be seen of the building is from the 15th, 17th and 18th centuries. The Museum of Cáceres contains a collection that goes from Prehistory to the Visigothic period, another collection of Ethnography, as well as the Hispano-Arabic cistern and the collection of Fine Arts with works from the Prado Museum (Lucas Jordán, Vicente Carducho, Antonio Mª Esquivel...), from the Bishopric of Coria-Cáceres (carvings, paintings and works of religious silverwork); from the Provincial Council (works by contemporary artists such as Alberto Sánchez, Canogar, Chirino, Genovés, Gordillo, Millares, Oteiza, Palazuelo, Saura, Vostell, Zóbel... ) and from the Regional Government of Extremadura, with works by Extremaduran artists such as Ortega Muñoz or Juan Barjola. It also has a room for temporary exhibitions.
