    The 13th century sanctuary is located at the top of the Cerro de la Cabeza. From its viewpoint, you can contemplate the great beauty of the Sierra de Andújar. It is worth a stop.

        From the night of 1227 when, according to tradition, the shepherd Juan De Rivas grazed with his sheep in the area, the Virgen de la Cabeza appeared to him and asked him to build a sanctuary to venerate her.

        Since then, the pilgrimage has been celebrated (with some historical interruptions), on the last Sunday of April!
