HERRERA DEL DUQUE

Welcome to My Little Village 🏰❤️🇪🇸

When I was younger, I used to go every summer and easter, lately I am visiting less but the love is the same.

Herrera del Duque is located in Badajoz, Extremadura. It is one of main villages of the area with more than 3.500 population, which in the main festivities or holidays, it probably duplicates its population and fun!

I find it cozy and adorable, like going away of the rush and worries, the feeling here is chill out during day and good vibes during night, the environment is pure nature. It has many special things around to do and visit, but one of the most special is…the castle atop the hill!

Last April 2018, we visited Herrera del Duque while the festivity of “Ruta de la Tapa”, which means you go from bar to bar, having a beer and trying special and different food from every bar. The fun starts around midday and it ends whenever you want!

There is a castle atop of a hill which is very cool to explore and to get panoramic views of all the village and the surroundings. The castle of Herrera del Duque displays all its stately 16th-century splendour, a characteristic that has led to its declaration as a Spanish historical heritage site.

Located in the province of Badajoz, it is a key point for dominating the town of the same name, as it is located on a high ground in Sierra Chamorro. This fortification is comprised of a walled enclosure, where most of the remains made of stone and masonry are still intact. Its most important owners were the members of the Order of Alcántara.
