This beautiful village is situated on the Ubeda Hills, next to the Sierra de las Cuatro Villas mountains, in a landscape made up of vast olive groves and cereal fields. Inside the village we can find some interesting monuments, such as the Church of Nuestra Señora de la Asunción, the House of the Inquisition, the Palace of Cardinal Benavides and the Hospital.

Part of its municipal district is included in the Sierras de Cazorla, Segura and Las Villas National Park, the largest protected natural space in Spain: an orographic labyrinth of valleys, calares, gorges, mountains and flat lands of enormous hydrological importance (due to the numerous rivers and streams which spring within the Park); of great botanical importance (different varieties of pine trees and a lot of endemic species); it is also important aesthetically and from a wildlife point of view. Because of this it is one of the most visited and frequented natural spaces in the country.
