Guía Carrión de los Céspedes

Description

In the western part of Aljarafe, where the region merges with the County of Huelva and Campo de Tejada, Carrión rests. Whoever passes by the V Centenario Highway will be able to clearly see, looking at the Alcarayón Valley, from which it received the Arabic name, the white hamlet of Carrión.

It bears in its name the trail of the Marquises of Céspedes, since D. Gonzalo de Céspedes, twenty-fourth knight of the council of Seville, bought the lordship of the then Carrión de los Ajos from King Philip II in 1576.

Our town is linked to the Manila shawl, since the first workshops emerged in women's homes in the 1930s, a tradition that continues today.

Our municipality is also a benchmark in research and innovation in the water sector, since the Carrión de los Céspedes Experimental Plant is located there, belonging to the CENTA foundation, a unique and unique technological platform in the world.

This guide to Carrión de los Céspedes will be very useful for moving through its streets, locating each bar, restaurant or visitable places of tourist or cultural interest or knowing where its main festivals are celebrated.
