Antequera, known as The Heart of Andalusia, has a rich history dating back to prehistoric times. Archaeological evidence suggests that the area was inhabited since the Bronze Age. During the Roman period, it became an important settlement known as Antikaria. Later, in the Middle Ages, the city went through periods of Arab and Christian domination, leaving a diverse footprint on its architecture and culture. Antequera has been a strategic enclave throughout history, and its rich heritage is reflected in its impressive architectural heritage.
