ON 29TH MARCH THE CATHEDRAL WILL BE CLOSED THE WHOLE DAY.
Meet our guide in Plaza de Santa MarĆa where you will start discovering the buildings of the Town Hall, the Archbishop's Palace and the impotent Cathedral of JaĆ©n. The latter will be the protagonist of our first part of the tour.
JaƩn Cathedral was conceived in the 16th century to replace the previous Gothic temple of the 15th century. The construction took several centuries, although the original idea was maintained. With the entrance ticket included in this Tour you will get to know its interior and all the richness it houses.
Continue through the streets of the Jewish quarter, where you will find the Fuente de los CaƱos, Francisco del Castillo's drinking fountain. Continue along Calle Rostro to wander through these labyrinthine and narrow streets more typical of other times.
Then you will be impressed by the Arab Baths of JaƩn, the only Muslim bath that has survived to the present day out of the five that the city once had. You will enter the baths after visiting one of the rooms of the imposing Villardompardo Palace. Once in the baths, you will visit each of its rooms: the Vestibule, the Cold Room, the Warm Room and the Hot Room.
Then, you will discover the legend of the Lizard of JaƩn, and you will see the exterior of the Church of La Magdalena, the only parish church in the city which, despite being Christian, still maintains vestiges of one of the major mosques of JaƩn.
Finish off your experience with a tasting of the best olive oils from the province of JaƩn. With more than 66 and a half million olive trees, JaƩn EVOO is classified as the best olive oil in the world, with numerous varieties and beneficial health properties.
