The Ermita de San Gregorio is located in an area known as Los Cerrillos. It is a simple, single-nave chapel where locals celebrate the Feast of San Gregorio each 9th of May.

The chapel is situated on Cerro de la Virgen de la Cabeza. To reach it, you have to climb about 500 metres. There are two chapels here — one older and one newer, built in 1992 to welcome more pilgrims.

The church has distinctive characteristics that set it apart from its surroundings. It was commissioned in 1545 by Francisco Roldán. Externally, the beautiful tower is the most notable element of the urban landscape and a true identifying symbol of the town.

The Arab cistern of Cogollos de Guadix is a semi-buried rectangular water tank from the Emirate period, now restored and used as an exhibition hall in Plaza Aljibe.

Cogollos de Guadix has ancient origins dating back to the Late Roman Empire and the Argaric period. Later settled by Arabs and later ruled by the Marques de Villena, it preserves a rich mix of cultures and history.

Iglesia de la encarnación

Like many other towns in Granada, Albuñán began to grow as an urban centre following the expulsion of the Moors in the sixteenth century.

The earliest evidence of settlement in Pinos Puente dates back to the Late Bronze Age. The Cerro de los Infantes settlement was particularly significant in the south-east of the Iberian Peninsula, in the Granada province. Associated with the Tartessian culture, the main external influence, this settlement controlled the passage from the Genil River valley to the north. Later, at the end of the 8th century BC, the indigenous inhabitants of Cerro de los Infantes adopted the innovations introduced by Phoenician colonisation, including the potter's wheel and high-temperature firing kilns. Furthermore, Phoenician influence led to a change in housing models, with oval or rectangular huts being replaced by more complex square-shaped constructions.

There is a bus service line 0111 from Granada to Peligros. The bus calls at Poligono Asegra, Urbinazacion La Joya, Pelegros (centre) Vista Alegrenaz.

It is known that the first Roman settlements were established on this site, with at least two villas built in the second and third centuries. During Islamic rule, it was known as Bericlox and served as a farmstead in the Vega, a strategically important location for Elvira or Ilíberis. The Battle of La Higueruela took place near the site in 1431, with Christians and Muslims fighting each other. The Granadan army lost more than 10,000 men in the battle.

The village of Maracena dates back to the Roman era, when it was an agricultural village known as Maratius. In 1964, the remains of a Roman villa were discovered at Casería Titos. Among these remains were tiles, the remains of a hand mill and a pedestal bearing an epigraphic inscription in which a certain Publius Cornelius Callico dedicates a votive offering to the goddess Stata Matrem

The town's history is intertwined with the vicissitudes experienced by the Vega de Granada region as a whole. During the Roman era, it formed part of the network of rural estates used for agricultural production in the area, and during the Muslim era it was occupied by a peasant population who cultivated mulberry trees for silk production.

In its beginning, Santa Fé was a military camp of approximately 48ha created by the Catholic Monarchs in preparation for the final assault on the Nasrids (Arab dynasty) of the Kingdom of Granada. Out of the army camp grew an imposing town of bricks and mortar within a record time of just 80 days. The town’s structure follows the form of a cross based on two roads that intersect in the centre

Bus Timetables to Alora

There are bus services from Álora centre to Málaga city and from Álora centre to El Chorro. History of Alora You can see traces of various civilisations in the town. The Castle of Álora, established by the Phoenicians, was later expanded during the Roman period and rebuilt under the Moorish period, reflecting the area's layered history. History of Pulianas The origins of Pulianas date back to the Roman period. Archaeological remains indicate it was established as one of numerous agricultural villages near Granada. Historians believe the municipality’s name may have two origins: Arabic and Roman. According to Seco de Lucena (19th century Spanish writer, journalist, lawyer and politician), in Muslim times, it was named Bulyana. This title was found in the Ihäta fi ajbär Garnäta by Ibn Al-Jatib (14th century influential cultural figure, historian and politician), which cites it as qaryät bulyäna. The opinion that the name is of Roman origin comes from the fact there is no direct Arabic meaning for the word Bulyana. This led to the conclusion, as with many others in the toponymy of Al- Andalus, that the name has an external, possibly Roman, origin. History of Alfacar The first records of Alfacar as a settlement date from the Zirid period (1010-1090). The name Alfacar comes from the Arabic term al-Fajjar, which means mud, clay or pottery. At that time, palaces, mosques, towers and a castle were built in the area of Aynadamar (today's Fuente Grande). Some buildings have survived, such as the Arco de Somera, the baths, the Acequia de Aynadamar and part of the old wall. Subscribe to History
