Centro Histórico de Frigiliana

The narrow streets of Frigiliana's historic center follow the natural contours of the hillside, connected by steep stairways between white-painted houses decorated with flowers.

The urban layout dates back to Muslim rule in the 8th century, with the construction of the Lízar Castle marking the beginning of medieval settlement development.

Each building in the historic center maintains strict architectural guidelines that reflect the Moorish influence, with traditional elements including wooden doors and wrought iron windows.

The information center on Cuesta del Apero provides maps and guidance for exploring the district's twelve marked routes through the medieval streets.

The district contains Europe's last functioning sugar cane honey factory, housed in the 16th-century Ingenio Nuestra Señora del Carmen building.
