Village of Guadalupe
Guadalupeis an unassuming historic mountain village with cobbled streets and traditional homes. It sits on the foothills of Sierra de Altamira, Spain. Guadalupe serves as a good center for visitors wanting to explore the nearby mountain towns and villages of the region.

Guadalupe's rich history can been seen in its architectural monuments. The main attractions include the beautiful Mudejar styled Sanctuary-Monastery of Our Lady of Guadalupe, which is a world heritage monument and one of the prominent Pilgrim centers in the Peninsula, as well as the central Plaza de Santa Marķa, and the old hospital of San Juan Bautista, that dates back to the 15th century. :cool:
