The town, situated on a rocky plateau, invites you to travel through time. From the 11th century it was the capital of a taifa, a small Berber kingdom. The fortified town was finally reconquered in 1264 by Alfonso X, who also took Seville, Jerez and Cádiz during the Reconquista. For two centuries Arcos was an outpost on the border of the kingdom and in the 15th century the village came into the hands of the Ponce de León family, who played a major role in the victory over the kingdom of Granada. During the 19th century, Arcos acquired its current appearance thanks to the rise of olive and grape cultivation and horse breeding.
