One of the four windmills in the neighbourhood of San Miguel, just outside Vejer. The mills were constructed to mill flour. The silhouette of these windmills is one of the symbols of the town and they have been preserved as a part of the history of Vejer.

Plaza de España - the main square - with a colourful tiled fountain, featuring four frogs. The square is dating back to 16th century, when the town grew beyond its walls. During the 16th and 17th centuries, it was used for watching bull fights. In 1957 the fountain was built in the centre of the square, made of hand painted Sevillian tiles. Since then this square is popularly known as ‘Plaza de los Pescaítos’.

Cádiz Cathedral is the most famous landmarks of the city. The church is built on the site of an older cathedral - completed in 1260 - which burned down in 1596. The new cathedral was built between 1722 and 1838. Construction began in the baroque style and was completed in the neoclassical style. The cathedral is topped by a 52 m. high ‘golden’ dome, which adds a Moorish feel to the building. The western bell tower (Torre de Poniente) has become a tourist attraction. The tower, whose construction began in Cadiz’s golden age in the 18th century, can be reached via the ramp. The top of the tower affords outstanding views over the city and a closer look at the dome.
