In Lopera, we find one of the best examples of castles built by the Military Order of Calatrava in the province of Jaén. Declared a Cultural Monument in 1991, this fortress retains its original walled enclosure, although over the years it has also served as a residence and, in the mid-20th century, even as a winery.

Since 1227, the date on which the apparition of the Virgin of the Head to Pastor Juan de Rivas is recorded, the celebration of the pilgrimage is commemorated on the last Sunday of April of each year, although the apparition took place on the night of the 11th. to August 12, 1227 in whose memory a kind of small pilgrimage is also celebrated on that date in the same Sanctuary of the Virgin of the Head.

Impressive Basilica full of history that guards the Virgen de la Cabeza, patron saint of Andújar and the Diocese of Jaén, becoming the oldest Pilgrimage in Spain since 1227

The Torredelcampo station is perhaps one of the best preserved old railway stations on the entire Vía Verde del Aceite.

This viewpoint, located in the municipality of Andújar, is one of those dedicated to pilgrims heading to the Basilica of the Virgen de la Cabeza. There is also a sculpture that represents a father and a son pointing the direction of the sanctuary.

The Basilica of Nuestra Señora de la Cabeza, located on a promontory from which you can see the Sierra de Andújar, is the second most visited Andalusian sanctuary after the hermitage of El Rocío.

This tributary of the Guadalquivir river passes through two important reservoirs: Jándula and Encinarejo. It ends later, in the municipal term of Andújar. This point is right next to the Encinarejo recreational area.

The history of Arjona is as rich as its cultural and monumental heritage that overlooks the Guadalquivir Valley from a gentle hill.
