Fuente Obejuna, Municipality in northern Córdoba Province, Spain
Located 98 kilometers from Córdoba city, Fuente Obejuna extends across 592 square kilometers at an elevation of 625 meters above sea level.
The town gained attention in 1476 when its residents united to overthrow Fernando Gómez de Guzmán, the Commander of the Order of Calatrava.
Spanish playwright Lope de Vega immortalized the town's rebellion in his 1619 play, which became a symbol of collective resistance against tyranny.
The municipality contains fourteen administrative districts, including Alcornocal, Argallón, Cuenca, and Posadilla, with a population of approximately 5,000 residents.
Archaeological excavations near Fuente Obejuna reveal connections to the Roman settlement Fons Mellaria, meaning honey fountain in Latin.
