Overview

I offer you a real journey through time to find us in the middle of the 16th century and discover the city of Ubeda, classified as a World Heritage Site for its Renaissance district. The circuit of course includes the most important monuments of the city but it also includes places less frequented by tourists. As the group is small, I like to interact with the visitors, ask them questions and get them to participate. In addition, the circuit can be modified according to the tastes and desires of the participants. For example, I can insist more on a monument, a style or a period of history. I can also modify the circuit and show other parts of the city such as the San Lorenzo district or the Santiago hospital. Finally, at the end of the course, I offer you an optional olive oil tasting, a real immersion in the region's flagship product. This moment of exchange is very instructive and much appreciated by visitors.

Activity itinerary

Plaza de Santa Lucía
  • 5m
Our tour begins at the viewpoint over the Guadalquivir Valley. I will give you a short presentation of the city of Ubeda and its history.
Plaza Vázquez de Molina
  • 30m
Our visit continues in Vasquez de Molina Square, reputed to be one of the most beautiful in Spain. It constitutes a unique ensemble, classified as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO since 2003. I will introduce you to the various monuments which adorn the square and which date for the most part from the Renaissance: the chapel of El Salvador, the palace of Dean Ortega, the old grain store, the Basilica of Santa Maria and the Vasquez de Molina Palace.
Sacra Capilla del Salvador
  • 20m
  • Admission ticket included
We will visit the interior of the Chapel of El Salvador, the jewel of Ubeda for which the best artists of the time worked. We will also visit the sacristy, another masterpiece of the Spanish Renaissance.
Plaza Primero de Mayo
  • 15m
Our visit continues in Place du 1er mai, the city's main square for centuries. I will tell you about the Saint Paul church, the old town hall and the monument dedicated to Saint Jean de la Croix.
Calle Real
  • 15m
We will then head to Rue Royale, the old high street of the city, to admire some of the most beautiful Renaissance palaces.
Plaza San Pedro
  • 20m
To get off the beaten track a little, we will get lost in the small alleys of the old centre to discover the very essence of the city, marked by its Muslim past. We will thus discover charming little squares away from the traditional tour circuits.
Plaza de Andalucía
  • 30m
Our visit will end in Andalusia Square. We will discover one of the towers of the wall at the foot of which kings and emperors swore to preserve the privileges of the city. As an option, we will meet Salvador who, in his shop, will introduce us to the world of olive oil. He will offer us a tasting of several oils to learn more about the green gold of the region. Visitors will be able to ask all the questions they want concerning the cultivation of olive trees and the production of olive oil. Salvador is a great connoisseur in this field, his shop has received numerous distinctions and is a reference in Ubeda. Salvador speaks French but I help him if necessary, being myself a guide in an olive oil factory in the region.
