    One of the buildings - witnesses of the old mining exploitation of the XIX century. It belonged to the Spanish-German company Sociedad Especial Minera Santa Bárbara. Although it is abandoned and it is not possible to enter, this place has become an obligatory route due to its great scenic beauty. These mines were closed in 1914 due to World War I, they reopened in 1922 to close permanently in 1924.

    In the North of the Province of Córdoba, and following the local road CO-5314 that enters the Sierra de Hornachuelos, in the municipality of Posadas we find an old mining exploitation "Las Minas de la Plata", which despite its Abandoned state, it has become an obligatory route for hikers and hikers thanks to its great scenic beauty.

    At the foot of the road we find a series of abandoned buildings belonging to the Spanish-German company Sociedad Especial Minera Santa Bárbara, which was responsible for the exploitation of the mine at the end of the 19th century.
