HORNOS DE SEGURA
Hornos, Spain, Spain
Hornos de Segura is a tiny, picturesque white village perched on a rocky crag in Jaén province, Spain, within the Sierras de Cazorla, Segura y Las Villas Natural Park.
With roots tracing back to Neolithic times around 4830 BC, it flourished under Iberian, Roman, and later Muslim rule as the impregnable La Madinat de Furnus, featuring defensive walls and a tower that were bolstered by the Order of Santiago after its 1239 Christian conquest during the Reconquista.
Its 13th-14th century castle, now a museum on astronomy and space exploration, crowns the medieval labyrinth of flower-lined streets, while the population of under 700 preserves its frontier heritage amid stunning valley vistas.
