FERNAN NUÑEZ Information |
This mediaeval town dates from the latter half of the 14th c. It owes
its name to one of the beneficiaries of the distribution of land following
the Christian conquest. It became quite well known in the 17th c.
as a result of the enlightened minds of the local lords. The ducal
palace, begun in 1783 is worthy of note; it still has some remains
of the mediaeval fortress that was the origin of the town. The parish
church of Santa Marina de Aguas Santas is a magnificent example of
baroque architecture, built around a 14th c. tower. The local festivities
revolve around 18th July and the Feria Real (royal Fair) is held in
August.

CarMalaga.Com Tip: Cordoba
gastronomy |
| The mountainous sierra
produces a wide range of quality meats and park products which are
used to prepare traditional dishes such as cochifrito and oxtail,
whilst bars and restaurants are supplied with fresh fish from the
nearest coast. The vegetables grown in the fertile Guadalquivir valley
are the staple ingredient of local specialities like salmorejo - a
cream of gazpacho - like soup garnished with a hard bailed egg and
cured ham - and a stew with broad beans and aubergines. Examples of
Cordoba's traditional confectionery, of Andalusi legacy, include the
alfajores, and the pastel cordobes, a pastry filled with cider. As
far as handcrafts are concerned, Cordoba is famous for its silver
jewellery and embossed leather products. |
