A REFLECTION OF THE IMPORTANCE OF THE CITY IN THE PAST

Presided over by its historic castle and the walls that surround the old medina, the Baenense urban complex has a set of unique buildings that over the centuries have constituted a faithful reflection of the historical evolution of the population.

From manor houses to the great public infrastructures of our days

The tour of the streets and squares that make up the urban center of Baena allows you to discover notable buildings, among which the castle and the walls stand out, which, together with other important religious buildings, draw the profile of the Almedina neighborhood.

The modern constructions of the city that contrast with the previous ones in the Ensanche area deserve special mention. The public Library, the top-level sports facilities and buildings such as the CADE or the Exhibition and Congress Center, make Baena a benchmark for Andalusian civil architecture.

The Casa de la Tercia, today dedicated to the Historical Museum and other public administration offices, was once a vast agricultural building built at the end of the 18th century.
The headquarters of the Municipal Public Library "Valverde y Perales" is one of the most emblematic contemporary buildings in Baena.
