The municipality of Galera has been part of the Cultural Route of the Council of Europe denominated "The Phoenicians’ Route" since 21 December 2016. The 31 members of the Spanish network of this route also include the Councils of Jaén and Cádiz, the municipal districts of Linares, Baena, Mengíbar, the Caves of Almanzora- Villaricos, Algarrobo, Vélez Málaga, Chiclana, and the Universities of Jaén and Cádiz

The Phoenicians’ Route refers to the connection of the main nautical routes used by the Phoenicians from the 12th century BC onwards as essential itineraries for trade and cultural communication in the Mediterranean basin. This itinerary crossed all the countries in the Mediterranean basin, many of them in North Africa and the Middle East and that led to the strengthening of the historical links between the countries. These links are represented by a huge heritage originating from Mediterranean civilisations that date back thousands of years and can be seen not only in numerous archaeological, ethnic, anthropological, cultural and natural elements in all Mediterranean countries but also in the important Mediterranean intangible cultural heritage.

The aim of the Phoenicians’ Route for travellers to discover our common itineraries, connecting three continents and more than a hundred cities, all with their origins in Mediterranean civilisations that date back thousands of years.
