Antequera

An exceptional heritage in the heart of Andalucía

Antequera, a town awarded as a Tourist Municipality, is located in the main crossroads of Andalucía and, therefore, a compulsory place of passing for travellers along history. Thanks to this strategic location it has become the “heart of Andalucía”, the link among the main communication roads, with carriageways and motorways (A-45, AP46, A-92) as well as the railway axis of Córdoba-Málaga and Seville-Granada, plus two stations for the High Velocity Train (AVE) within the municipal area. The Pablo Ruiz Picasso International Airport is just half an hour by car.
