The lonely Torre de los Aliatares is one of the few remnants of Muslim Bayyasa (as the town was called by the Muslims), having miraculously survived the destructive Isabel la Católica’s 1476 order to demolish the town’s fortifications. The order was meant to end the feud between the Benavide and Carvajal noble families.
The tower is located in Plaza de España in the centre of the town and which merges with the sprawling, cafe-lined Paseo de la Constitución, once Baeza’s marketplace and bullring.
