Atardecer desde el Mirador de la Peña
At the top of the hill that dominates Lebrija stands the Ermita de Nuestra Señora del Castillo, a beautiful Mudejar-style temple built on the ruins of the old Almohad fortress. The site preserves sections of walls and defensive remains of the medieval castle.
In addition to its incalculable historical and spiritual value for habitually housing the city's Patron Saint, the gardens and viewpoints around the Castillo offer the best panoramic views over the Guadalquivir marshes and the Lebrija countryside.
The exterior area and the viewpoint are open with free and open access permanently, being one of the most romantic and recommended corners to contemplate the sunset in the town.
