About the area of Campillos and Antequera

Campillos is situated in the western extreme of the Antequera region, in the centre of a plain surrounded by small hills.Just north of the Valle del Sol, Alora, Ardales, and Teba.

Near the roads which go to Antequera, Alora, Ardales and Teba, there is a lagoon declared a Natural Reserve by the Agency of Andalucia. The most important is Fuente de Piedra, and Campillos Lagoons.

To the south of Campillos there are beautiful landscapes formed by the Guadalteba and Guadalhorce reservoirs, of which the waters cover most of the land which used to belong to the now missing municipality of Peñarrubia. The recent road, gives access to the Parque Ardales in this municipality, as well as making an attractive route.

Campillos occupies a good geographical situation as it communicates with important cities such as Antequera, Ronda and Osuna (in the province of Seville). This has favoured the transit of people and merchandise through its lands, since ancient times. Pre-historic man inhabited these lands, as proven by archaeological finding in some hills close to the town, in which neolithical vestiges have appeared. In the Castillejos they have discovered remains which indicate the presence of an Iberian-Roman settlement, in which ceramics and coins have been found.

The first certain news about Campillos, comes from the 15th century when, after the Christian conquest, the site was created with people from Teba and Osuna, being united administratively to Teba until it achieved independence in 1680 through the privilege of jurisdiction.

In 1975, the lands of the municipality of Peñarrubia, whose town disappeared under the waters of the Guadalteba reservoir were incorporated into Campillos.

Places to Visit

The most outstanding monument is the parish church of Nuestra Señora del Reposo which dates from the 16th century, although the building suffered important modifications at the end of the 18th century and beginning of the 19th century leaving it with its present configuration, especially on the main facade, which is baroque and considered to be one of the most spectacular in the Antequera region. The interior of the temple consists of three main naves and a third for chapels which presents an exuberant decoration. Inside, the tower rises with several bodies, the last to hold the bells, and crowned with a ballustrade and the cover has a pyramidical form covered with ceramic tiles.
