We didn't manage to visit the castle... unfortunately. It was constantly closed. We did see people upstairs, but we don't understand how they got there.

The Hermitage of San Benito is one of the most representative temples in the historic center of Setenil de las Bodegas, both for its religious significance and its architecture. Its façade is classically inspired, with a small bell gable and a symmetrical design reminiscent of the neoclassical style. On the side of the façade are ceramic plaques that pay tribute to the Spanish Legion and the 52nd Melilla Regulars Group, for their participation in the processions since 1957 and 1973, respectively.

Cuevas del Sol Street in Setenil de las Bodegas is one of the most iconic and photographed corners of this picturesque town in the Sierra de Cádiz, famous for its houses built directly beneath enormous rocks.

A 135-meter-long viaduct, built using rectangular truncated pyramidal pilasters with mortared ashlars, is formed by the repetition of seven identical arches. It was built to span the Guadalporcún River crossing before it meets the Guadamanil River. The latter originates in the Sierra de la Lebrona mountain range in the municipality of Pruna (Seville) and flows into the Guadalporcún River just a few meters from the viaduct. The confluence of the rivers has created a wide floodplain. From this railway infrastructure, there is a privileged view of the Estrechón Canyon, a natural passage carved by the Guadalporcún River to traverse the foothills of the Zaframagón Rock. Just below, on the left bank of the Guadalporcún, we find the ruined building of what was once the Zaframagón mill. A little further west, other ruins can be seen. It is a small town built for workers on the railway line construction site.

Setenil de las Bodegas is a picturesque municipality in the province of Cadiz, Andalusia. It is known for its unique urban layout, with houses built under large rocks that form part of the Trejo River canyon. This town is an essential stop on the famous route of the White Villages of Cadiz.

There is a main street on either side of the Guadalporcún river that runs through the village, both of which offer the perfect places to enjoy the view of the rocks. They are called Cuevas del Sol and Cuevas de la Sombra (Sun and Shadow Caves). They owe their name to the sunlight phenomenon that occurs thanks to the rocks above them. Cuevas del Sol is always in sunlight.
