Barrio de los Bueyes

El Barrio de los Bueyes is the oldest neighbourhood in Jerte. The village was burned in 1809 by Napoleon's troops during the War of Independence and this area was one of the few that escaped the burning. Therefore, it still retains good examples of the typical architecture of the period, characterized by its arcades and wooden balconies and its half-timbered houses. There are also some bigger houses made of stone. An enjoyable place to visit.
