Taking advantage of the existing spring, the man thought of settling in this place called Valcrespo, and building his home and the pool used to irrigate the garden. Today everything is in ruins and quite deteriorated although the spring continues to flow water.

It is an old and artisanal pool created in stone next to the Valcrespo farmhouse, next to the fountain and next to the farmhouse pool, which stopped being an inhabited home at least 80 or 90 years ago.

Now, after the harsh and dry summer of 2023, the spring has dried up 🥲. I hope and trust that winter precipitation can help restore water and life!

It seems painted on purpose, but the fact is that it has an almost artificial golden color 🤔 remaining motionless in front of walkers. It must have been dry for a long time since its condition is not recent. It is located on a not very prominent watchtower from where you can see part of the city.

It is a hospital center built in the middle of the Sierra de Jaén and which served for a long time to treat patients with respiratory diseases. It has been closed to the public for a short time.

In these abandoned facilities, the primitive brewery "El Alcázar" was created with its own spring that gave this Jiennense beer a special flavor. Today the factory is located on the other side of the highway and belongs to the Heineken firm, which also manufactures the Cruz Campo brand with the same spring from the first factory.
