The palace is the most emblematic building of Jabalquinto, strategically located between the Guadalquivir and Guadalimar Rivers. Its construction was started in the fifteenth century, and it was remodeled in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, as well as throughout the second half of the twentieth century due to its ruinous state.

The two towers of this castle have prompted archivists to attribute its construction to the Berber occupation of al-Andalus, although the previous existence of an Iberian oppidum is suggested, with remains of Roman work.

The station was opened on September 15, 1866 in line with the newly commissioned Vilches-Córdoba railway line that was intended to link Manzanares with Córdoba. MZA’s concession of the line was of great importance, since it allowed the station’s expansion to the south after having managed to link Madrid with Zaragoza and Alicante.

Finca Badenes is an olive farm with an extra virgin olive oil mill and bottling plant. It is open for visitors, offering several routes around the farm to explain the different varieties and plantations, as well as the facilities in the oil mill and bottling machine, where you can learn about the entire production process.

The chapel was built by order of the Marchioness, Catalina de Rojas y Sandoval, in 1635. It is a small convent-style building located just behind the Town Hall, next to a viewpoint with excellent views, now deconsecrated and conditioned for housing

Construction of the church began in the sixteenth century, but the population growth of the late eighteenth century necessitated an expansion process which was undertaken throughout the 1800s.

This house was built between the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries inside the medieval castle fortress. In 1856, some works were carried out on the openings, balcony and entrance gate. In its present restored state, it is one of the largest and most beautiful Town Halls in Andalusia.

Jabalquinto originated as a Muslim tower with the dual purposes of controlling and defending the ford of the Gualdalquivir River. On November 5, 1009, the Battle of Quantix took place in what is now the rural district of Jabalquinto, as recounted in the famous chronicle by Constable Lucas de Iranzo.
