Regional delicacies
Try Vera's celebrated smoked paprika, Pimenton de la Vera. Vera's red peppers gleam in the sun, and have been hand picked by locals since the 16th century. Then, the monks of the Yuste Monastery used them in their paella, but today, Vera's smoked paprika is exported all over the world.
Saturday is market day in Vera Town, and the entire town is transformed into a vibrant melange of stalls, vendors, flowers and patrons throughout the year. Come and grab some local produce at reasonable prices. Afterwards, you can relax at the cafe in the Plaza Mayor. Musicians serenade you with traditional tunes as you enjoy refreshments, sunshine and people watching.
Wind back the hands of time
Vera's militant 16th century church was conceived as a fort to deter pirates and Moorish invasions. Its four commanding towers and impressive facade show little sign of ecclesiastical leanings. Inside though, a Baroque chapel and delicate carved altarpiece suggest otherwise.
Next to Plaza la Encarnación, the town hall also harks back to the 16th century. Learn about local lore and history at its enthralling Ethnographic and Archaeological Museum.
