What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors find the Casas Mudéjares to be a memorable space offering a glimpse into Badajoz's rich medieval and Arab past, particularly appreciating the Mudejar architectural remnants. However, daytime visits can be hampered by intense heat, and ongoing construction may affect the experience.
"The heat prevented us from enjoying the visit as much as we would have liked. The current construction doesn't make it any easier either, but we understand that it's necessary, and it will be wonderful to enjoy the area once everything is finished. All in all, a memorable space."

"It is only the facade, currently they are municipal buildings. The whole route up to the high square is a bit empty."
