Álora, located in the province of Málaga, is a historical treasure that seduces with its charm. Its emblematic castle of Álora, majestic on top, and the Church of La Encarnación stand out as cultural landmarks. Known as the "gateway to the Gaitanes Gorge", it serves as an access point to the famous Caminito del Rey.

The cobblestone streets and cozy squares invite you to stroll, while the authentic local cuisine completes the experience. Álora, with its rich heritage and welcoming atmosphere, stands as a tourist destination in itself in the beautiful region of Malaga.

Church of the Veracruz of Álora

Built in the 16th century to commemorate the victory over the rebellious Moors.

Its façade, divided into three sections, has a belfry with a single opening that houses an 18th century bell. Inside, the image of Our Lady of Mercy and Saint Veracruz is venerated.

Upper Fountain Square

Highlight • Structure

Plaza Fuente Arriba is the heart of Álora's historic center. Its name literally means "Upper Spring Square"—hence the lower Plaza Baja. Since the beginning of the 20th century, the plaza has been an important meeting place for locals and visitors alike. A small Franciscan convent from the 17th century once stood here, but it was sadly destroyed during the Spanish Civil War. Afterwards, the square was redesigned to be the open space we see today. Plaza Fuente Arriba is now a vibrant place, with several charming cafés, small bars, and restaurants where you can enjoy a drink or a meal.
