Parador Mirador de Abades

A very original route with significant descents and ascents, but it's worth it.

Because of their sins, the figures are supposed to retrace Jesus' path from Palm Sunday for a week.

The Mirador de Abades in Arcos de la Frontera is a wonderful place to admire the impressive views. From here you can see the Guadalete River and the beautiful Lago de Arcos, as well as the surrounding nature and the historic center of the city. It is a great place to enjoy a sunny day and the tranquility of nature. Please note that you will have to cycle back up, this is a dead end.

The church dates from the early 15th century and for many years competed, in importance and beauty, with the Iglesia de Santa María. The façade has an impressive neoclassical bell tower. The church has only one nave, with a ribbed vault.

El Belén artístico El Camborio is a beautiful and impressive creation located in Arcos de la Frontera. It is a small museum that looks like a cave carved into the rock, in which beautiful treasures and scenes from the Gospel are depicted with great detail and craftsmanship. It is a place where the landscape changes from day to night, which makes it even more special.

This church was built around 1530 on the site of a 14th-century church, which itself had taken the place of a large Moorish mosque. The main façade, by Don Alonso de Baena, is a perfect example of the Plateresque style. The church, which is accessed via the neoclassical right-hand side façade, has the plan of a basilica with three naves separated by sturdy columns supporting star vaults. On the high altar is a 17th-century altarpiece (Assumption of the Virgin) by Jerónimo Hernández and Juan Bautista Vázquez. Behind the high altar is the octagonal apse of the former Mudejar church. The frescoes (The Coronation of the Virgin) that once adorned the high altar were transferred to the wall to the left of the altar in the 1960s.

The Puerta Matrera is the only remaining gate of the original city wall of Arcos de la Frontera. This gate connects the old town centre with the Barrio Bajo. It is a historically important building that was restored in the 17th and 18th centuries. From here you can still see remains of the city wall between the houses. The gate also has a small chapel with a statue of the Virgen del Pilar, which has been recently restored.
