The city extends across the Sierras Chicas mountains at an elevation of 553 meters in the Córdoba Province of Argentina.

The Jesuits established a productive estate in the 17th century to support the Collegium Maximum, which later became the Universidad Nacional de Córdoba.

The Jesuit Block features a colonial Baroque temple with blind walls, decorated pulpit, and carved angels representing European and indigenous artistic elements.

Alta Gracia connects to Córdoba city through regular bus services, with accommodation options ranging from basic hostels to luxury hotels.

The residence of revolutionary figure Ernesto Guevara during his youth now functions as a museum displaying personal objects and photographs.
