Valley of the Segura

Descripción
Descripción larga

The inhabited cores around the valley were able to take advantage of the river's passage by creating small channels and waterfalls. You will see great walnuts and some orchards by the villages, irrigated with a pure crystalline water. At this point, the river still has the presence of the common trout, a species that only lives in especially clean waters.

After Las Anchuricas the valley goes to Las Juntas de Miller, where the Segura receives its second tributary, the Zumeta River. Together they cross the provincial limit that is located there, entering the province of Albacete. In this place a hydroelectric power plant was erected in the 1950s to take advantage of the flow of these two rivers.

The valley offers pleasant visits around it that will allow you to get to know the Sierra de Segura in depth. Among others, we recommend:

  • Visit the village of La Toba, a place where water is the great protagonist. If the cold water does not impress you, you can go up to the birth of La Toba, which is found in a curious cave well known in the region.
  • Rest next to the reservoir of Las Anchuricas. The water and the high mountains have created this peaceful place, of which you will surely have to leave.
  • Walk around some of the nearby villages such as La Fuente del Esparto, La Peguera del Madroño or Las Gorgollitas. The latter offers an exciting view of the valley.
  • Seating water in the impressive fountain of The Four Caños, between the Anchuricas reservoir and Miller's Boards.
Breve descripción

In the village of Huberga Utrera, the Segura River receives its first tributary, the Madera River. From this point on the Segura, with an already important flow, goes through its valley through bridges - one of them built by the Romans - and visiting villages that were born on its bank and thanks to it survived. The road goes parallel to the river, and on its sides there are impressive calares with magnificent views of the Sierra. As you pass the village of La Toba, the river falls into the charming reservoir of Las Anchuricas.

Town Planning of Aldeaquemada

Submitted by brandcode_deweloper on

Descripción
Descripción larga

We can also find other architectural monuments in Aldeaquemada, which come from the time of the colonization of Charles III, highlighting:

• Church of the Purple Conception (18th century). A colonial-type church with a single ship. A vertical trend in relation to the rest of the buildings. Its facade is made of brick and is articulated in two bodies. In the first one, in rectangular form, the only differentiated elements are a narrow cover with a half-point arch and above, two lunetes that keep the line of horizontality. In the second body, a slight swordsman with a bell tower is triangulated, culminating in a small front. There are two houses on both sides of the church, corresponding to the old house of the priest and the post commander.

• The Comandante's House has also come to serve as a city hall for many years and even... The poultry house where bulls and bravas were locked up during the holidays of San Miguel! It is now the Retired Home, renovated and opened in April.

• Diezm and Labrador site (18th century). Building of the time of colonization and present in all the foundations of Charles III. It was dedicated to housing the cereals harvested by the farmers and as a warehouse in times of famine. Current town hall of the town, it is built in brick, of rectangular floor, of two floors and roof to two waters where it has a discreet structure of grabbard brick that houses the city's watch. New atypical uses: some of their rooms have performed the role of dungeon, home of the retired, butcher's shop, teleclub and, of course, municipal warehouse.

Breve descripción

Aldeaquemada was born as a crossroads of roads, faithful to that function is the layout of its streets: rectangular urbanism, with long rectilinear axes. Aldeaquemada, is certainly the "Perla urbanística de Sierra Morena," for its urban innovations of structuring the streets on cross-sectional axes that divide it into squares and for the conservation of its original layout, hence it can be considered the entire urban town of the town as one more monument. The streets are perfectly aligned with the cardinal points, and the church with the altar
East.

Shaded Hillside of Cabeza Gorda

Descripción
Descripción larga

Traditional constructions have only been modified, although the most rewarding is the view that you can enjoy from the village that really constitutes a natural balcony open to an overwhelming landscape in which stands out on the whole Calar del Cobo with the Puntal of the Mass.

If you like them, you can't stop visiting the Umbria, as it's a very good area for the collection of these mushrooms. In addition, a delicious unmarked road leads to the nearby village of Cabeza Gorda, located on the opposite side of a mountain, which is naturally called Morro de Cabeza Gorda.

Breve descripción

Despite being called the Umbria de Cabeza Gorda we are in front of a village located on a solana, with vegetation typical of the Mediterranean forest. You can see an isolated house around an explanade belonging to the ancient era, next to which there are some cherry trees and a fountain that welcome us.

Descripción
Descripción larga

The camera has rectangular floor with three ships. The greater than the sides, and these to the right and left, have an antecedent that is accessed by false arches with simulated capitel in their jambas. In the interior of the receptacles we can observe banks and poyetes to deposit the cineries and the joules. The side and central ships have niches on the walls to receive offerings. The construction of about four meters in length by almost three meters wide is made with large armchairs adjusted to the time of its assembly and covered by a structure of large slabs. The whole construction is of a monumental character, cyclopean by the size of some armchairs and dintels. In terms of its content, we must refer to the recovered, and among all this we highlight the Greek ceramics of red figures, especially the crateras and the metal elements among which the remains of a car stand out. His chronology includes it within the Iberian culture of the end of the S. V and the beginning of the IV before Christ. The aim of this stop is to show how a main funeral chamber is and its meaning in the context of the Iberian aristocratic society. The Centre of the Principesque Tombs of Peal allows you to know the theme of the life of the ultratumba and the funeral rites.

Breve descripción

In the well-known Cerro de la Horca, very close to the village of Toya and the famous castle-archaeological site of its same name, is the great tomb known as the funeral chamber of Toya.

Travertines of the Río Borosa

Submitted by brandcode_deweloper on
Id
877964
Descripción
Descripción larga

The upper part of the Borosa River, has a scalated profile for the development of pozas and waterfalls in which travertine terraces are formed with spectacular botroidal calcite morphologies that were precipitated during the most humid and warm periods of the Quaternary.

Although travertine appear throughout the river, the highest concentration is located in the sector between the organ jump and the electric power plant. Its formation is due to the precipitation of calcite caused by the tear-up of the river waters produced by the turbulent regime of the water leaps in the areas with the greatest slope. This precipitation occurs in areas of dense vegetation receding elements of plants and producing subvertical sheets known as cascade facies.

Santa Catalina Towers

Submitted by brandcode_deweloper on
Id
4672189
Descripción
Descripción larga

According to some authors, the torres- atalaya of the area of Orcera and Segura of the Sierra must be reconsidered and dated again as coming from the time of Carthaginese domination of the peninsula, between the years 237 and 202 before Christ, for being quoted in Tito Livio asTowers of Anibal, being in one of them where one of the Scipion brothers died in the warrior refriegas of 211 BC This hypothesis must be taken into account and confronted by the specialists of ancient history of Spain, but in no case can it be held seriously that they are only medieval, Islamic, Almohade or Christian. Its origin, although in medieval times they were the subject of partial restorations or reconstructions, possibly from the third century BC, between the years cited and in the occasion of the wars between Rome and Cartago for the possession of the peninsula.

This tower is a twin of the tower of Santa Catalina II, it seems to be a Muslim work of the late 12th or early 13th century and its function would be to monitor the intricate landscape of hills surrounding them.

Its quadrangular plant measures about 5.30 by 4.20 meters from sides, its height of about 14 meters, the thickness of its walls on the ground is 1.19 meters, and the access gap is about 7 meters high. Its interior is organized in 4 plants separated by beams that supported the zócalos resulting from the progressive narrowing of the walls.

Breve descripción

The Tower of Santa Catalina I is located in the municipal term of Orcera, province of Jaén, and is part of the defensive set of three towers that exist between Segura de la Sierra and Orcera, and are named after Santa Catalina.

Descripción
Breve descripción

The towers of the Customs (18th century) were built to flank the passage to the Customs Square, where taxes and tolls were charged. These neoclassical-style constructions are one of the most well-known and representative monuments of La Carolina. They intended to bring a sign architecture to the capital of the New People and a revolution to the urban planning of the time. In 1792 they were moved to keep the north entrance of the city. In the original plane of the population, a tower was planned to be erected for each vertex of the city.
