Presentation of Malpartida de Cáceres

The municipality of Malpartida de Cáceres (4,122 inhabitants in 2019; 3,373 ha; municipal website) is located 10 km south-west of Cáceres.

Malpartida de Cáceres was already settled in the Paleolithic, as evidenced by the archeoloicla sites of Vendimia and Regato del Lugar. Around 3000 BC, a settlement was established in Los Barruecos, which yielded 47 sites with schematic rock engravings and paintings. A pre-Roman necropolis and bronze ex-votos dedicated to goddess Adaegina by the Vettones were also found, as well as the ruins of a Roman villa.

The modern settlement was probably established at the end of the 13th century during the re-settlement of the area in the aftermath of the Christian reconquest, on remains of Arab dwellings.
Still a hamlet depending on Cáceres at the end of the 18th century, Malpartida was close to suppression after the War of Independence.
Malpartida de Cáceres, separated from Cáceres in 1833, florished in the 19th century due to industrialization and the establishment of the railway station of Arroyo-Malpartida, which became a new source of employement.

Malpartida de Cáceres is one of the 15 members of the European Stork Villages Network. Stork colonies thrive in the historical center and in the Los Barruecos natural monument. The town has ben organizing the Stork's Week every year since 1990.
