Puebla de Alcocer

Image of Puebla de Alcocer, not of the place itself.

The castle, originating in the 13th century with 15th-century alterations, preserves a cylindrical tower and overlooks the nearby reservoirs. The church of Santiago Apóstol combines Romanesque and Mudejar styles with 13th-century wall paintings; the convent of San Francisco, completed in 1543, today houses the local ethnographic museum.
