On the Ruta del Califo, this city can be proud of its La Mota fortress, an imposing Muslim monumental complex that has been restored in recent years. It overlooks the town and the Sierra Sur, whose olive groves produce the picual marteña variety of olives. Conquered by Alfonso XI in 1341, it became his key city for the final reconquest of Granada. Today, in addition to the fortress, a visit to the old town also allows you to discover many hermitages, located in the picturesque district of Las Cruces. On the opposite side of the Mota, it offers panoramic views of the city and the fortress
