Overview

Introduction

The White Village (actually now a town with a population of over 5,000) of Montefrio is located in the northwest corner of Granada bordering on the province of Cordoba in the Subbetica region.

The town occupies one of the region’s, if not the whole of Spain’s, most striking settings as immortalised by a photograph in the National Geographic magazine. One of its churches clings precariously on top of a rocky pinnacle overlooking the town and olive groves which stretch to the horizon.

The church on the pinnacle, the Iglesia de la Villa, was built on the site of a Nasrid castle, as Montefrio originally occupied a strategic position in defending the Muslim kingdom of Granada from Christian invasion. It’s a steep climb up to the church but the views from there are legendary so it’s worth the effort. The Nasrid castle was destroyed by the Christians in 1486, but some of the castle walls are still to be seen surrounding the church.

Montefrio has a rich history and is a beautiful town to explore. Believe it or not it is generally off the tourist track.
