http://turismoextremaduraplasencia.blogspot.com

Plasencia is undoubtedly a unique in Extremadura and in Spain Easter.

Firstly by the guilds, some very old, with roots even that become the Foundation of the city.
Second steps each of the guilds, from different periods and styles, from the 13th century - 14th to
the 20th century, by steps from the 15th, 16th, 17th, 18th and 19th centuries.
Third so singular and traditional travel, that its structure is basically the same during the 800 years
of the Foundation of the city: the output as the convent of San Vicente Ferrer, from the 15th
century, attached to the convent of the Palace of the Marquis of Mirabel, the Church of San
Nicolas, the houses of the Dean, of the counts of Torrejn, Dr. Trujillo , The old hospital of Santa
Mara, Episcopal Palace, cathedrals, convents as the incarnation, that of the whites, Plaza Mayor
and its City Council, streets Calle Trujillo, white, wide. The environment of the walls and palaces
and medieval and Renaissance buildings. It is incomparable.
Fourth, the devotion of the brotherhoods of Plasencia which celebrate with intensity every day of
Holy week, and the public participating solemnly, with a mixture of sobriety Castellana, but with
touches of arrows.
This and much more on 28 February 2012 week Santa Placentina has received at the hands of
the Extremadura Government consideration of Regional tourist interest.
In addition, we think that possibly in a few years, it will at least become Festival of national interest.
