THE HISTORICAL ROUTE OF KING FERDINAND THE CATHOLIC THROUGH THE AXARQUIA.

The presence of Ferdinand the Catholic in the Axarquía region is mainly linked to the 1487 military campaign during the conquest of the Nasrid Kingdom of Granada.
The so-called "Historical Route of Ferdinand the Catholic in the Axarquía" can be explored by following several key locations where decisive episodes of that campaign took place.

Recommended Itinerary

4. FrigilianaAlthough Frigiliana's most famous historical episode corresponds to the subsequent Morisco rebellion in the 16th century, the area came under Christian control following the campaigns initiated by the Catholic Monarchs.Highlights:The Mudéjar old townCobbled streetsConnections to Andalusia's Morisco history.

5. NerjaThe eastern coast of the Axarquía became part of the Christian advance following the fall of Vélez-Málaga. Nerja still preserves watchtowers related to coastal defense after the conquest.What to visit:The Balcony of Europe (Balcón de Europa)Coastal watchtowers.
The Nerja Caves (Cuevas de Nerja)Historical ContextThe campaign of 1487 was one of the most significant operations of the Granada War.
