Nestled in the Valle del Guadalhorce, Almogía stands as a living testament to millennia of civilization—from prehistoric cave paintings to Phoenician, Roman, and Visigoth settlements—culminating in a rich medieval heritage embodied by the Moorish castle and the Torre de la Vela, where Arab and Christian cultures intertwined. This historic town is also celebrated as the birthplace of verdiales, a unique flamenco singing style, while its architectural treasures include the 16th-century Iglesia de Nuestra Señora de la Asunción and the Santo Cristo chapel, both lovingly restored following centuries of history and natural upheaval.
