The Monument to Captain Vicente Moreno Bautista in Antequera honors a prominent military figure in the region, who became known as a hero of the Spanish Wars of Independence. The statue was created by the sculptor Francisco Palma Toledo and erected near the Church of San Juan Bautista in the early 20th century, around 1910. The monument depicts the captain in a traditional military pose and is an important symbol of Antequera's military history. It is treasured by the local community and is considered an important example of Andalusian public sculpture from this period.

The Antequera Dolmens Archaeological Complex is one of the most important prehistoric sites in Europe and is located on the outskirts of Antequera in Andalusia, directly on the Carretera de Málaga. The complex includes three large megalithic tombs – the Dolmen de Menga, the Dolmen de Viera, and the Tholos de El Romeral – as well as the two natural monuments Peña de los Enamorados and El Torcal de Antequera. Since 2016, they have formed a recognized UNESCO World Heritage Site, uniquely demonstrating the connection between humans, architecture, and landscape. The Dolmen de Menga is the largest structure in the complex and is one of the most impressive megalithic tombs in Europe. It was built between approximately 3800 and 3600 BC and consists of enormous stone blocks assembled to form a long burial chamber. Particularly noteworthy is its orientation toward the Peña de los Enamorados rock, which indicates symbolic or ritual significance. Human remains and grave goods have been found inside. Just a few meters away is the Dolmen de Viera, which is somewhat smaller and of a more classical design. It was built between 3500 and 3000 BC and is oriented exactly east, allowing sunlight to fall directly into the burial chamber at the equinox. The third structure, the Tholos de El Romeral, is located about four kilometers away and dates back to the Copper Age around 2500 BC. Its circular shape and corbelled vault distinguish it from the older dolmens, demonstrating a further development of the architectural style of the time. The visitor center is located directly next to the Dolmens of Menga and Viera, where visitors can learn more about the history, architecture, and cultural significance of the complex. Exhibitions, models, and interactive displays explain how these monumental structures were constructed using the simplest of means and the role they played in the religious life of early communities. The center also offers guided tours, information materials, and a small shop. Today, the dolmens of Antequera are considered an outstanding example of how people understood their environment more than 5,000 years ago and shaped monumental structures in harmony with nature, astronomy, and faith. The combination of prehistoric architecture and the impressive landscape makes the site a unique testament to early European cultural history.

The historic center of Antequera – Centro Histórico de Antequera – is one of the most important cultural heritage ensembles in Andalusia and reflects the city's long and eventful history. Located in the heart of the province of Málaga, it combines traces of Roman, Moorish, and Christian times. The cityscape is characterized by narrow, cobbled streets, white houses with wrought-iron balconies, and numerous churches, monasteries, and palaces, primarily built during the Renaissance and Baroque periods. The predominance of religious buildings is particularly striking – Antequera is often called the "City of Churches," as it boasts over thirty churches. Among the most important are the Real Colegiata de Santa María la Mayor, one of the first Renaissance buildings in Andalusia, and the Iglesia del Carmen with its impressive Baroque sanctuary. The Alcazaba, the former Moorish fortress, towers over the city and offers impressive views over the historic center. Roman remains, such as thermal baths and mosaics, can also be found in the surrounding area. Due to its location between Málaga, Córdoba, Granada, and Seville, the city has always been an important transportation hub and cultural center. Today, the historic center of Antequera, along with the nearby Dolmens of Antequera (a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2016), is one of the region's most important tourist attractions. It testifies to the cultural diversity, artistic flourishing, and historical significance of this Andalusian city.

Located in Antequera's Plaza de San Sebastián is this striking bronze sculpture of two men on a bench, created by the artist Pedro Fernández Roales. The sculpture depicts José Antonio Muñoz Rojas and José María Fernández in a lively conversation, symbolizing the dialogue about art, culture, and the city itself. It invites passersby to pause and reflect on the importance of creativity and cultural heritage. The work of art is not only an eye-catcher in the heart of the city, but also an expression of Antequera's vibrant art scene and the appreciation for local artists.

The Antequera Dolmens are one of the most important prehistoric monuments in Europe and are a UNESCO World Heritage Site. These impressive megalithic tombs—including the Menga, Viera, and El Romeral dolmens—date back to the 3rd millennium BC. They offer unique insights into the rituals and architecture of prehistoric society. Surrounded by a landscape overlooking the Peña de los Enamorados and the Sierra del Torcal, this is a place where nature, culture, and history converge.

The Puerto de los Alazores is a mountain pass in the Sierra de San Jorge, in the province of Granada, close to the border with Málaga. This pass is located in the Cordillera Penibética and is approximately 1040 metres high. This pass was an important route in the past, especially during the journeys between Granada and Málaga. According to some sources, Ferdinand II of Aragon crossed here in 1487 to conquer Vélez-Málaga. In the area around the pass there are different types of trees, such as the pino carrasco, elms and pino resinero. It is also the place where the Guadalhorce River rises.

In Alfarnate, La Venta de Alfarnate dates back to the 13th century, and is considered the oldest in Andalusia. Due to the numerous stories and legends surrounding it, it is considered a true popular monument, and it is not for nothing that it now houses the Museum of Andalusian Banditry. All kinds of people and all social classes have passed through here: muleteers, black marketeers, bandits, even King Alfonso XIII and Saint Joseph of Calasanz, not to mention artists, painters, and more. La Venta de Alfarnate remains faithful to its principles, its mystery, and its romantic magic. Its cuisine is fundamentally based on Andalusian mountain and country cuisine, with notable dishes including Alfarnate crumbs, eggs a lo bestia (roasted eggs), garlic goat, fried lamb blood sausage with tomatoes, and scrambled eggs with anise porridge.
