Set of thirteen hermitages run by the Discalced Carmelites since the mid-20th century. Although this was a place of religious gathering since the Middle Ages, the first hermitages as such were founded in the 18th century by Brother Francisco de Jesús. Today it is a common place for a walk for the inhabitants of Córdoba due to the unbeatable views it offers of the city.

Founded in the 18th century by Brother Francisco de Jesús, this place has been a hermit retreat since the Middle Ages. The first construction was built in 1703. The complex is made up of thirteen cells or hermitages that have been run by the Discalced Carmelites since 1957. Inside the enclosure there is a magnificent viewpoint presided over by the monument to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, a work carried out in 1929 by Lorenzo Coullaut Valera. From this place you get a wonderful view of Córdoba and part of the Vega del Guadalquivir.
