Which is the biggest market in Badajoz Province?

Cabeza del Buey Municipal Market (Mercado de Abastos de Cabeza del Buey) is a small indoor market in the centre of Cabeza del Buey, Badajoz, serving the local community six mornings a week. Located at Plaza Diego Díaz, the market's 15 stalls stock the daily staples: fresh fruit, vegetables, meat and poultry, fish and seafood, and bread from local bakeries. It opens Monday to Saturday from 9am to 2pm. Bring cash, as it's the only accepted payment.
