Antequera: wine, gastronomy, the Torcal and the Dolmens

Antequera is a city of great cultural and economic wealth. Its historic center is composed of more than fifty monuments and buildings dating from the Bronze Age, as evidenced by the Dolmen of the Cueva de Menga, the Dolmen of Viera and the Romeral.

Crowned by the castle and the basilica of Santa Maria, in its old town there are collegiate churches, churches, convents, palaces, arches, gates, chapels, manor houses and a citadel. Outstanding among them all is the Nájera palace (18th century), which today is the Municipal Museum; the convent of Las Catalinas or the palace of the Marquises de la Peña, in Mudejar and Renaissance style. It is highly recommended to visit the natural site of El Torcal, in the surroundings.
