MONTEMAYOR Information |
This is a fortress town with a view over low cultivated countryside.
It
may well have existed in the year 2000 BC, though the actual settlement
dates from 1340 built around a mediaeval castle. The church of the
Assumption is a blend of Gothic and
mudejar, plus later reforms. There are several hermitages in the neighbourhood,
as well as the remains of the castle of Dos Hermanas, originally Moorish.

CarMalaga.Com Tip:
Route of the Caliphs |
| The Route of the
Caliphs runs between the two most impotant town of Hispano Muslim
history, including the frontier area of Jaen. Two great towns
and two great centuries. Cordova's consequence was world-wide
and Granada's was one of refinement and drama. These are the
two extremes on either side of the inmense cultural, political,
and social heritage of Al Andalus, a civilization with unique
and un repeatable features. Between both, there's a land of
legends, of garrisons, watchtowers and castle, of remarkable
towns, people and customs. Two large geographical depressions
are connected in the Route of the Caliphs - Gualdalquivir and
Granada - linked by yhe valleys across the southern sierras.
There are two mountain ranges, Sierra Morena in the provinces
of Cordova and Sierra Nevada in that of Granada. During the
reigns of the Omayyad caliphs, the territory that lies along
this route was inlcluded in three provinces or coras: Cordova,
Cabra and Ilbira. |
