The design is typical of regional travel advertising: heavy text descriptions, visual reinforcement with photos, and strong emphasis on price/dates. The lack of translation contrasts with their cross-border tourism focus (Portugal), limiting accessibility for non-Spanish speakers, only through pictures. PALRA

This is a coat of arms carved in relief on a wall in Cáceres, featuring an imperial eagle with spread wings. The two-headed eagle (or in some cases single-headed with an elaborate crown) is a Habsburg symbol, widely used in Spain during the reign of Charles V (Carlos I of Spain) and his successors. It represented the Holy Roman Empire and the union of Spain under imperial rule. The decorative effect here was achieved through the technique of sgraffito, in which layers of plaster or stone are scraped to produce a shallow relief. This method was common in the 16th century and allowed façades to bear heraldic and political symbols in a striking yet durable way. PALRA
