A small town with narrow streets and buildings with whitewashed walls in the province of Jaén. The Castillo de Hornos is located in a strategic position at the highest point. Protect the trade routes in and out of the Sierra de Cazorla and Sierra de Segura mountains. The castle was built by Muslims in the 9th century and now functions as a museum.
