Municipality located to the east of the province of Córdoba, on the border with Jaén. Most of it is located in the foothills of Sierra Morena, making the Guadalquivir River the border with the countryside. Therefore, the mountains, the river and the countryside are the three elements that determine the landscape.

The first is part of the Sierra de Cardeña y Montoro Natural Park, and in it we can find vegetation of holm oaks, wild olive trees, stone and maritime pines and a population of melojo oak, rare in Andalusia. It is also an area of great fauna, hunting and livestock value. The second, which surrounds the town, is the axis of the landscape, life and history of the town; Due to the beauty of the meander, it is also known as the Andalusian Toledo. The third, populated by olive trees, places us in a truly Cordoba environment.

The town, with an Iberian, Greek, Roman, and Muslim past, is located on a small elevation that dominates the course of the river that divides it into two neighborhoods, offering an unmistakable image.

Declared a Historic-Artistic Site in 1969, it brings together a multitude of attractions and tourist attractions to visit, such as the bridge over the river, the Church of San Bartolomé, the Casa de las Tercias, its steep streets of white houses, or the Torre de Villaverde. Its Holy Week, declared of Tourist Interest, reaches its greatest splendor on the afternoon of Holy Thursday with the presence of the Roman Empire. It is one of the towns included in the Baético Romana Route.
