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.

Linares has Iberian roots, with the city of Cástulo as its original center, capital of Oretania. It was first mentioned as such in 1155, during the reign of Alfonso VII. In the 19th century, it experienced its greatest boom thanks to lead mining, becoming a key industrial center in Spain. In 1875, Alfonso XII granted it the title of city. In the 20th century, the automotive industry took center stage with Santana Motor, which manufactured the famous Land Rover Santana.

The Land Rover Santana Monument in Linares pays tribute to one of the city's most important industrial symbols: the all-terrain vehicle manufactured by Santana Motor, a company that operated between 1956 and 2011.

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.

The wall, preserved in very good condition and still visible for many years to come, offers us the opportunity to walk around its perimeter, with stairs providing easy access to the different levels. In this section, we can appreciate the wall more directly.

Sabiote's historical debt to the architect Andrés de Vandelvira for the many works of art he left behind in the town prompted the Town Council to pay tribute to him in the form of a bust located in the town's main square.

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.
