Right at the entrance to the city of Baeza, we find another example of water-related art, as this three-spout fountain spouts fresh water to quench our thirst.

In the same square as the Church of San Pedro, we find several palatial homes owned by important lineages of the city, which for many years were wealthy and well-off families. This grand palace dates back to the 16th century, although it was restored in the 20th century.

This church was rebuilt in the 16th century, although construction began in 1500 on the site of a previous church that, like most, was demolished. The Gothic-Isabelline north portal was designed by Alonso Barba, a disciple of Andrés de Vandelvira, architect of Jaén Cathedral. His project was delayed due to a lack of funding and was not completed until the 17th century. This church was declared a National Monument in 1972.

What a spectacular structure we see today, it has survived the passage of time and the attacks of its inhabitants, not without a few historical vicissitudes. Most likely of Muslim origin, its history begins in the 13th century, until the withdrawal of the French in 1812 left the fortress almost destroyed. Due to numerous reconstructions, it can be visited today, although, understandably, only a small part of what it was in its day of greatest splendor remains.

In the other part of the city, which is divided by the N-322 national highway, now served by the highway, half the population lived on that side, while the other half lived on the other side. This artery was full of intersections with traffic lights that are now unusable due to the little or no traffic that passes through that area. The sports complex serves the physical needs of the citizens in fairly well-maintained facilities.

A potter recognized by the city is undoubtedly "Paco Tito," who has established himself as a great creator of clay-related art, reaching levels that would be difficult for any ordinary person to surpass. Thus, the city, in recognition of this local artist, created the museum that bears his name.

This is a very well-preserved section of Úbeda's ancient wall, which also includes a tower and a small space dedicated to rest. We are in the heart of the city, very close to the Town Hall and where most of the town's monuments are located.
