Easy hikes and walks around Magina

Nice viewpoint. You cannot go up to the top of the tower (door closed)

Very pretty! Be prepared to get your feet wet to discover the waterfall, the different "chambers" are well worth it!

One of its names comes from the Fountain of the Lions, and the other from the Casa del Pópulo, a Plateresque building that houses the Tourist Office. Also located in this square are the old butcher shop, now a courthouse, the Villalar Arch, and the Jaén Gate.

Declared a National Monument in 1931, the cathedral stands on the site of an ancient Roman temple, later transformed into a Visigothic structure and then into a mosque after the arrival of the Muslims. In 1227, it became the cathedral seat under the Marian patronage of the Nativity. It acquired its Renaissance character in the 16th century, after more than half of the building collapsed in 1567. Andrés de Vandelvira and other important Andalusian architects imbued the cathedral with the classical style then prevalent in religious art. Until the end of the century, the temple was transformed piecemeal. The main portal was designed in 1587 by Juan Bautista Villalpando, featuring a relief of the Nativity of the Virgin, sculpted by the Jesuit Jerónimo del Prado from Baeza. The Puerta de la Luna (Moon Gate) is one of the oldest elements of the cathedral, with its distinctive 13th-century polylobed arch. Above it stands the 14th-century Gothic rose window, one of the few elements that survived the collapse of the cathedral in 1567. Therefore, the reconstruction was entrusted to Andrés de Vandelvira, who contributed his mastery to give the cathedral the Renaissance richness it boasts today. The combination of Mudéjar, Gothic, and Renaissance styles allows one to observe the passage of time through its walls, telling its story through each of its architectural styles. In addition to visiting the interior of the cathedral, it is highly recommended to climb the tower, from where you will be rewarded with spectacular views of the town and its surrounding countryside.

Antonio Machado lived in Baeza from 1912 to 1919, working as a French Grammar teacher at the city's secondary school, a period that marked one of his most prolific literary careers. At the Old University, visitors can see the classroom where he taught, which still contains the same furniture he used when he was a professor.

One of its names comes from the Fountain of the Lions, and the other from the Casa del Pópulo (House of the People), a Plateresque building that houses the Tourist Office. Also located in this square are the old butcher shop, now a courthouse, the Villalar Arch, and the Jaén Gate. The Old Butcher Shops, a civil building constructed in 1547 during the reign of Charles V, had a slaughterhouse on the ground floor and the sales area on the upper floor during the Middle Ages. The Casa del Pópulo, a Plateresque-style building with two floors, has a lower floor with six doors (one for each Public Notary Office) and an upper floor that was occupied by the Royal Court. Finally, the Fountain of the Lions, which arrived from the Iberian-Roman city of Cástulo in the 16th century, features several ornamental elements, among which the Imilce is particularly striking. This female figure is said to have been the Iberian princess of Cástulo and wife of the Carthaginian general Hannibal Barca.

This palace is one of the finest examples of the Isabelline Gothic style. Built at the end of the 15th century, its façade, decorated with diamond-pointed motifs and beautiful windows, is particularly noteworthy. Inside, it features a courtyard with two stories of semicircular arches supported by marble columns and an impressive Baroque staircase. It currently houses the International University of Andalusia. It can be visited Monday to Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

Opposite the Jabalquinto Palace stands the Church of Santa Cruz, one of the few Romanesque churches in all of Andalusia. Built in the 13th century, after the conquest of the Upper Guadalquivir Valley by Ferdinand III, it preserves remnants of 15th and 16th-century frescoes.
