History
Local legend has it that Arcos de la Frontera was founded around the
time of the great biblical flood and was built originally by Noah's
grandson. Even disregarding the legend Arcos is an historical gem of a
town, fascinating at every turn. Pictured right, a carved image dating to Roman times.
Tour
Enjoy the walking tour of Arcos de la
Frontera devised by Casa Campana. It guides you around the old quarter
and points out intriguing details the average tourist will never see.
The tour begins outside the imposing church of Santa Maria (pictured
