Cazorla, Mountain municipality in Jaén Province, Spain

The town of Cazorla sits at an elevation of 826 meters against the Sierra de Cazorla mountains, surrounded by dense forests and flowing rivers.

In 1235, Don Rodrigo Ximénez de Rada led the Christian conquest of Cazorla, transferring control to the Archbishop of Toledo's jurisdiction.

The Plaza Santa Maria, connected by narrow streets to Plaza de la Constitución and Plaza de la Corredera, represents the historical center of Cazorla.

Cazorla serves as the main entry point for visitors to the Sierras de Cazorla Natural Park, with multiple hotels and rural accommodations available.

The Cerezuelo River flows beneath Plaza Santa Maria, creating an unusual architectural feature where water runs under the town square.
