The tower is part of the Casa de los Sande, a noble family residence in Cáceres. Built in the 15th century, it originally rose higher than it does today. It is both an architectural landmark and a linguistic one: its very name encodes a history of political power, control, and memory, and it remains a cultural marker in Cáceres’ urban landscape. Name: Torre Desmochada literally means “beheaded” or “cut down,” referring to its truncated top. The tower was shortened (desmochada) as a consequence of royal orders. After periods of civil strife in medieval Spain, the Catholic Monarchs (Isabel and Fernando) and earlier monarchs sought to limit the power of noble families. They ordered many towers in Cáceres to be “desmochadas” (cut down), so that the nobility could not use them as fortresses or symbols of excessive power. The Torre de Sande is one of the clearest surviving examples of this architectural practice. Built in ashlar masonry, square-plan, with battlements (now reduced). Ivy and vegetation covering parts of the tower add to its iconic image in Cáceres. Declared part of the UNESCO World Heritage ensemble of Cáceres’ Old Town (Ciudad Monumental). Symbol of Cáceres’ historical identity: many local legends and tourist narratives highlight its “beheading” as a punishment against rebellious lords. PALRA
