Introduction :
|
|
Situated between the most northwestern foothills of the Ronda highland (sierras of Alcaparaín, Baños and Aguas), is also one of the northern doorways of the Guadalhorce valley and frontier territory between these two regions and the Antequera region which connects with Ardales.
|
|
History:
|
|
The strategic situation of these lands, between two towns of rich history, as are Alora and Ardales, must have favoured man’s presence since old. Near the Pinos brook, in the Alcaparaín sierra and in a chasm 40 metres deep, an internment from between the Stone and Bronze ages has been located, as well as cruciform schematic paintings and ceramics with incise decoration

The parish church of Nuestra Señora de la Salud is one of the buildings with architectural interest although it dates from the beginning of the 19th century. It was built on the site of an old chapel, and inside, consists of three naves, separated by arches with wooden armour and semi-espheric vault covering the presbytery and the alcove which holds the image of the Virgen de la Salud.
