What you can expect

  • Did you know that Antequera is the European city with the most churches per capita? During our tour, we'll see many of these monumental buildings with such rich heritage.
    The experience begins in Plaza de San Sebastián, one of the historic hearts of Antequera, where we'll enter the Collegiate Church of San Sebastián to discover its architecture and its role in the city. From there, we'll walk to the Coso Viejo, surrounded by stately buildings such as the Palacio de Nájera, now the City Museum, where we'll go inside to explore its interiors and the collections that tell the storey of Antequera. In this square, we'll also see the Convent of the Encarnación and the Convent of Saint Catherine of Siena, learning about the importance of convent life.
    The tour continues to the Convent and Church of Las Descalzas, a site of great artistic value, and then to the Church and Convent of La Victoria, one of the most outstanding monumental complexes. We'll stroll through the lively Plaza de Abastos, where we'll visit the Church of San Francisco and the Monastery of San Zoilo and Santa Clara. We will end at the Plaza de Santiago, admiring the Church of Santa Eufemia, the Church of Santiago, and the Convent of Belén, wrapping up a comprehensive tour of the historical and artistic richness of Antequera's churches.
