Cultural heritage events known as ‘Noches del Patrimonio’ (Heritage Nights) are being organized across different locations in Spain.

In Herencia, the municipality scheduled an event for August 29 to showcase historical and cultural wealth through guided tours of neighborhoods such as San José, La Encarnación, and El Santo. The program includes musical performances and theatrical representations centered around local hermitages.

In Cáceres, the celebration coincides with the 40th anniversary of the city being named a UNESCO World Heritage site. The festivities include 40 different activities and the opening of 40 spaces, including palaces, museums, and churches. A significant feature of the Cáceres event is the opening of the Mayoralgo Palace archaeological site, which houses Roman remains dating back more than 2,000 years.
