The Mirador Michael Hoskin in Antequera is a modern lookout point dedicated to the British astronomy historian Michael Hoskin. Located in the Plaza de los Escribanos, not far from the dolmen complex, it offers impressive views of the landscape, particularly the striking Peña de los Enamorados.
The lookout commemorates Hoskin's important research into the alignment of Antequera's dolmens. He discovered that the megalithic tombs—most notably the Dolmen de Menga—are not aligned according to astronomical celestial events, but rather to specific landscape features. This groundbreaking discovery contributed significantly to the dolmen complex being declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2016.
The mirador consists of a bronze bust of Hoskin facing the Peña de los Enamorados and a designed platform from which visitors can understand the relationship between the dolmens, the landscape, and the sightlines. The site is open to the public and invites visitors to experience the special connection between nature, science and history that makes Antequera a unique cultural landscape.
