Monuments and places of interest:
• Plaza de las Burgas, in the tour of the urban walk.
• During the tour of the old town you can see the traditional architecture of the area, still preserved.
• Building of the Town Hall, in the Plaza Mayor.

Holidays and traditions
• On February 3 the festival is celebrated in honor of San Blas.
• At the end of July the celebration of El Raso takes place.
• During the second and third Sunday of September the festivities are organized in honor of the Virgin of Chilla y Vela.
• Event you can't miss: Las Luminarias
Every December 7 Madrigal de la Vera (7 minutes from Candeleda) burns with the fires, the Luminaries, which are lit throughout the town to celebrate the feast of the Immaculate.
During this party you can taste the products of the slaughter, which is usually celebrated on these dates, while the typical jacks are sung and danced. We were lucky enough to go around this time and we loved the kindness and sympathy of the whole town. We just got full since they didn't stop feeding us!
In addition, it has become tradition to go days in advance to help look for firewood and bushes and, thus, feed the fire. The smell of jara and rosemary in the town during these holidays is very characteristic.
