オアネス周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

Fondón is a village in the Alpujarra region of Almería, surrounded by mountains and nature. Its historic center is notable for the Mudejar church of San Andrés and several chapels, as well as fountains and stately homes. It is a good starting point for hiking trails such as the GR-142 or the GR-140, which pass through landscapes of orchards, ravines, and vineyards. Visitors can enjoy the opportunity to taste the local wines and traditional dishes such as "olla de trigo" (wheat stew) or "remojón" (remojón).

charming town 🎈😍

The village with about 700 inhabitants is situated on the river, in a beautiful place surrounded by large rocks and hills that, together with the white houses of Arab origin in terraces and the orchards, form a beautiful sight. The parish church is worth mentioning.

For most of the year it is a dry gorge and a great place to enjoy not only views of the impressive geology (in places the heavy, compressed earth crust hangs sheerly above eroded pillars of earth) but also rare birds such as the 'Hobby' which is only found in this part of Europe.

To stop the problem of rural exodus, the Almócita City Council has changed the administrative dynamics towards a model of participatory democracy with neighbors and associations to achieve the transformation of our global society by working on values at the local level. In this context, the Almócita en Transition project is born. It is based on the empowerment of citizens, their love for culture and the recovery of traditions, knowing and incorporating the social fabric and making known/preserving heritage in all its variants (material and immaterial), in addition to using it as a sign of identity. The valorization of cultural heritage in all its variants, municipal beautification through art, poetry and collaborative murals, as well as agroecology and permaculture actions are the pillars of the global project and the ecomuseum/village.

Almócita, a town with Arab roots founded by the descendants of Tubal, is known for the parish church of Our Lady of Mercy. The urban structure preserves traces of the Arab era, with streets that betray its origins. The Lower Quarter houses the old Jewish Quarter and the Moorish architecture in the city center is the best preserved in the province.

Town hall of Almócita (Alpujarras)

A few remains from the late Bronze Age (approx. 6th century BC) have been found in the municipality; Roman and Visigothic traces are lacking. It can be assumed that Berbers from the Maghreb were the actual founders of the town in the 8th century. The town was reconquered by the Christians at the end of the 15th century (reconquista), but was briefly given as a fief to the last Emir of Granada, Boabdil. Many Moors from the south of Spain retreated to the remote mountains of the Alpujarras during this period; isolated attempts at final Christianization failed, but after the Moorish uprisings of 1499 to 1501 and 1568 to 1571, the last Muslims were expelled or resettled at the beginning of the 17th century.
