The Sanctuary of the Virgin of Linarejos is the main center of Marian devotion in Linares (Jaén), dedicated to its patron saint, the Virgin of Linarejos, honorary and perpetual mayor of the city. Tradition tells us that the Virgin appeared to the shepherd Juan Jiménez in 1227, although more recent research places the event in 1236.

The Linares Bullring, also known as the Coso de Santa Margarita, is one of the city's most iconic sites, both for its architecture and its bullfighting history. It was built in 1866 and inaugurated in 1867 with a bullfight featuring bulls from the Miura ranch.

Burgalimar Castle, also known as Baños de la Encina Castle, is an impressive fortress located in the town of Baños de la Encina, in the province of Jaén, Andalusia. This castle was built in the 10th century during the Caliphate of Córdoba, under the rule of Caliph Al-Hakam II. The castle is famous for its Islamic military architecture and its excellent state of preservation. It is surrounded by a robust crenellated wall with fourteen towers, as well as a keep of Christian origin. Its strategic location at the entrance to the Guadalquivir Valley made it an important defensive bastion during the Muslim era. Today, Burgalimar Castle is a national monument and a prominent tourist attraction, offering visitors the opportunity to explore its rich history and enjoy panoramic views of the region.
