Although sometimes referred to as a "medieval bridge," the known and documented historical bridge of Dos Torres is the Santa Ana Bridge, located near the Hermitage of Our Lady of Loreto. It dates from the 16th century, making it a Renaissance-late medieval bridge, but not strictly medieval in the strict sense (classical Middle Ages).

Dos Torres is one of the most charming villages in Los Pedroches. It stands out for: Its traditional architecture of lime, granite, and wrought iron, very well preserved in the historic center. A tranquil, authentic, and rural atmosphere, ideal for getting away from it all. A historical heritage that combines Roman remains, medieval legacy, churches of great artistic value, and unique natural spaces. Its location amidst spectacular meadows makes it perfect for nature lovers. Overall, it is a small village but surprisingly rich in history, tranquility, and architectural beauty.

Añora is a charming municipality in the region of Los Pedroches, in the north of the province of Córdoba. Añora is also famous for its festival of the Cruces de Mayo, when the town is filled with colour and joy.

It is a charming town with cobbled streets and a beautiful old town that is worth getting off the bike and visiting.

Dos Torres is a town steeped in history, its origins date back to the Late Middle Ages (14th and 15th centuries), but its territory was already populated in antiquity, in Paleolithic times and during Roman times, proof of this is the large number of archaeological vestiges that our historical evolution has bequeathed. The towns that gave rise to the current municipality were Torremilano and Torrefranca, whose peak took place in the 15th and 16th centuries, being during this period when its most relevant architecture would be built.

The term Añora has its origin in the Arabic word naura, which means waterwheel. According to scholars, the term refers to the waterwheel of an orchard that was in the vicinity of the place currently occupied by the municipality. And it was around the aforementioned orchard where the first inhabitants of the town gathered. In relation to the historical period in which the first residents settled in the place, even though it is not easy to document the exact date, it is believed that it was at the end of the 14th century and the beginning of the 15th.

Fruit of the union of Torremilano and Torrefranca (hence Dos Torres), this town is part of the route of the Seven Villas of Los Pedroches, which links seven towns with a common past.

Añora immediately attracts attention because almost all of its houses are built with granite blocks with the joints painted white. Some of them are very old but the tradition has been maintained. Because of these very particular facades, the houses of Añora are known as the "Casa de las Tiras".
