Church of Our Lady of the Incarnation

Highlight • Religious Site

In the Villa neighborhood of Setenil de las Bodegas, you'll find the 16th-century Church of the Encarnación, a late Gothic gem, built on the site of a former mosque with the patronage of the Catholic Monarchs after the conquest of the town.
Construction began between the late 15th century and the first decade of the 16th century, although it wasn't completed until 1614, due to a lack of funding that prevented the ambitious initial project of a single nave from being completed. This long construction period is responsible for the syncretism of styles in the unfinished church, which ranges from early Mudejar to Gothic, with some Renaissance reminiscences.
The most notable element of its interior is the Altarpiece of the Annunciation, with iconography based on scenes from the infancy of Christ, painted in three sections at the end of the 15th century.
The Brotherhood of the Holy True Cross - Los Blancos - process from this temple during Holy Week in Setenil, whose patron saint is the Christ of the True Cross.

Setenil de las Bodegas Town Hall

Highlight • Monument

This unique village is the only one in this part of Andalusia with cave dwellings. Unlike the region around Granada, there are no chimneys here, just rows of houses that seem to collapse under the weight of the rock from which they were carved. Beautiful examples are located on Calle Cuevas del Sol and Calle Cuevas de la Sombra. The tourist office has a beautiful artesonado ceiling from the 16th century. A keep towers above Setenil, from where the neighbouring village of Olvera can be seen. The Gothic Iglesia de la Encarnacion, located even higher, is decorated with neo-Gothic frescoes

Setenil de las Bodegas

Highlight • Settlement

The name Setil de las Bodegas emphasizes the rich history of the city. “Setenil” comes from the Latin words “septem nihil,” meaning “seven times no,” and refers to the seven failed attempts by Catholic rulers to regain territory from the Moors, who ruled much of Spain for centuries. The Catholics finally succeeded in the seventh attempt and established Setenil as one of the last Muslim strongholds in Iberia.

The caves were chosen for housing because of their ability to provide natural insulation against heat and cold, eliminating the need for full-fledged houses. This area has been inhabited since prehistoric times.

Puente de la Ventilla

Highlight • Bridge

The Puente de la Ventilla is a picturesque, historic stone bridge that elegantly spans the deep gorge of the Arroyo de la Ventilla near Arriate in the Andalusian province of Málaga. At approximately 25 meters high, it offers an imposing sight and is one of the region's lesser-known, yet impressive, structures. The bridge once served as a means of local transport between rural farms and the nearby village of Arriate. Its robust natural stone construction continues to withstand the forces of nature, lending it a rustic, authentic charm.
