The Interpretation Center of Traditional Architecture aims to spread the values of traditional architecture in the Sierra de Filabres, especially the slate roof designs seen in the municipalities of Castro de Filabres, Senés and Velefique.
The Mudejar-style church was built in the first half of the seventeenth century and has been restored on several occasions. It was erected in 1505, but disappeared in 1570 after the Moorish Rebellion and the depopulation of the mountains.
The Tourist Office is located in the Town Hall of Castro de Filabres, opening from Monday to Friday.
The Festivals in Castro de filabres are Cabalgata de Reyes Magos, Día de andalucía, Semana Santa, Fiesta del Emigrante and Festividad de Nuestra Señora del Rosario.
The history of Castro de Filabres dates to the Roman era, although there are some vestiges of prehistoric times, particularly from the Copper Age. Remains of polished stone instruments with axes, known as “Lightning Stones” , have also been found, made with a material called diorite. The foundation of the town is framed between legend and reality.
Castro de Filabres is situated in a riverbed between the Sierra Alhamilla and the Sierra de Gádor, an ideal environment for nature lovers to enjoy rural tourism. In the whitewashed village, where the houses all have flat roofs, the most striking building is the Iglesia de la Virgen del Rosario, built in the Mudejar style. The town has about 120 inhabitants.
