In Lopera, we find one of the best examples of castles built by the Military Order of Calatrava in the province of Jaén. Declared a Cultural Monument in 1991, this fortress retains its original walled enclosure, although over the years it has also served as a residence and, in the mid-20th century, even as a winery.

In the province of Jaén, few memories remain of the machinery used on the railway, so this boiler from a steam locomotive used from the late 19th century until the mid-20th century to transport freight and passengers on this important railway line. This section of greenway, which was removed for political reasons, houses this reminder of what was once an important economic artery in the province of Jaén, known as the "Oil Route."

The Máquina de Vapor in Martos dates from the period 1862-1963 and is an important historical artifact.

The central square, Plaza de la Constitución, is a lively place where locals gather for markets and events. The town has a warm and welcoming atmosphere, and is a great place to experience authentic Andalusian culture.
