Thursday street market on Calle Gabriel y Galán, 9am to 2pm, with fruit, vegetable and clothing stalls that take cash or card.
El Mercadillo is a weekly street market in Navalmoral de la Mata, Cáceres. It sets up every Thursday from 9am to 2pm along Calle Gabriel y Galán, one of the town's central streets, and it trades alongside the town's other street markets in Navalmoral de la Mata. You'll find fresh fruit, vegetables and clothing stalls. Unlike many Spanish street markets, card payments are accepted here alongside cash. Arrive before noon for the best selection, as stalls start packing up after that.
What you'll find at El Mercadillo
The market splits between fresh produce and clothing. One side has seasonal fruit and vegetables, while the other covers clothing and textiles, so it works as a weekly shop and a browse rather than a specialist food market. For other market days in the area, the Cáceres province page lists what else is running that week.
Where to stay in Navalmoral de la Mata
Staying central is your best bet in Navalmoral de la Mata, putting you within easy walking distance of El Mercadillo. The Town Centre has a handful of solid, affordable options and you won't need a car to get around.
If you prefer something more specific, Hotel Moya is a reliable local choice that gets good reviews for comfort and location, and for something with more space there is accommodation along the Avenida de Pizarro, a short way out of the centre. Either way, book ahead if you're visiting on market day, as rooms in smaller Extremaduran towns can fill up quickly.

Facilities & Accessibility
What day is El Mercadillo?
El Mercadillo runs every Thursday from 9am to 2pm on Calle Gabriel y Galán in Navalmoral de la Mata. It is a weekly market, so the Thursday slot holds all year rather than rotating between weeks, and traders begin packing away towards the 2pm close.
Does El Mercadillo take card payments?
Yes, El Mercadillo accepts debit cards as well as cash, which is unusual for a Spanish street market. Card acceptance still varies from one stall to the next, so carry cash for the fruit and vegetable pitches on Calle Gabriel y Galán, where small traders often prefer notes and coins.
What can you buy at El Mercadillo?
El Mercadillo sells fresh fruit, vegetables, clothing and textiles. The produce side runs to seasonal fruit and vegetables, and the rest of the pitch is given over to clothing and fabric stalls, so it covers a weekly shop and a browse rather than the specialist food counters of an indoor market.
Is El Mercadillo wheelchair accessible?
Yes, El Mercadillo is listed as wheelchair accessible. The market sets up outdoors at street level on Calle Gabriel y Galán, 24, in central Navalmoral de la Mata, and it runs on Thursday mornings from 9am to 2pm, so plan the visit within that window.
