Property
for sale in Antequera
Antequera lies some 45 Km to the north of Malaga and is reached by taking
the main A45 autovía out of the capital signposted towards Granada
and Antequera, approximately 10 Km after passing the town of Casabermeja
the road forks - the right hand fork goes on to Granada via the A359, we
take the left hand fork which is clearly signposted for Antequera and Cordoba,
we leave the autovia at Km 124 and head west for the final 10Km into Antequera
itself. As we descend towards Antequera a wide valley opens up before us
- this is a large plain rich in cultivation and with many typical Andalusian-style
farmhouses surrounded by olive trees and cereal crops. The entrance to the
town is close to La Peña de los Enamorados.
Covering an area of some 800 square kilometres Antequera is the largest
municipality in the province of Malaga, bordering the province of Cordoba
to the north and with the Mountains of Malaga to the south. The El Torcal
mountain range is closest to the town itself and with the passage of time,
erosion has made this area into one of the most interesting and beautiful
in all of Andalucía. Shell and marine-life fossils have been discovered
in the valley, which tells us that the area was covered in water millions
of years ago.
The Peña de los Enamorados is left behind us as we head into the
town and this hill is rich in legend and history. One legend tells of the
bodies of two lovers buried at the foot of the hill, he Christian and she
Moorish, who had fled to the peak to escape from their angry families, and
finally threw themselves off in a suicide pact. True or not is unimportant,
because this hill, bordered by the river Guadalhorce, arouses the stuff
that legends are made of in all of us.
The privileged situation of Antequera in the geographical centre of Andalucía
has made it into one of the most important towns between upper and lower
Andalucía, Granada and Seville. Antequera is a modern town these
days complete with all the services and shopping facilities one would expect
in a large town, but it also has a past rich in culture and history that
is, perhaps, unequalled in any other southern Spanish town of similar size.
There are many archaeological remains from the Bronze Age, such as the dolmens
at Menga, Viera and El Romeral, all burial grounds of the highest order.
It is believed that the Iberians, the Tartessus tribes, the Phoenicians
and the Carthaginians all settled here at one time or another and Carthaginian
remains have been found at Cerro León, where the battle between the
Romans and the Carthaginians of Asdrúbal took place.
After the conquest of Seville and Jaén, Antequera took on great strategic
importance as a military frontier fortification. It was conquered in 1410
by the infante Don Fernando, known in the history books as Don Fernando
de Antequera. The 19th century was tragic for Antequera as its population
was decimated by the Napoleonic invasion and yellow fever struck the inhabitants
in 1804, it was not until 1830 that a prosperous middle class emerged as
a result of a growing textile industry. This sector was to suffer once more
in the beginning of the 20th century as has happened in many north european
towns too. Antequera is now a modern town which has managed to retain much
of its heritage and long history.
