Old Lucena Station

Highlight • Structure

Lucena is a medium-sized small town with around 42,000 inhabitants. If you cycle the entire Via Verde del Aceite, this place is a good stopover.

In addition to olives and olive oil, the region's most important agricultural products are, in particular, the strong, sherry-like white wines of the D.O. growing region. Montilla Moriles (Wikipedia). You definitely have to try them.

End of the Vía Verde del Aceite

If you have started the greenway in Jaén, this point will be the end of the route.
If, on the other hand, you are going to start traveling along the old railway route from here, it will be the starting point and you will have 120 fantastic kilometers ahead to enjoy.

Castillo del Moral

Highlight • Castle

Castle built in 1148 by the Almohad Empire. After many changes of hands over the centuries, in 1926 the Lucena City Council bought the castle from the Dukes of Híjar, its last owners. After several decades of conservation work and recovery of the original structures, in 2001 the Archaeological and Ethnological Museum of Lucena was inaugurated.
