Guía Carrión de los Céspedes

You will find all the information of interest to visit Carrion de los Cespedes.

In the western part of Aljarafe, where the region merges with the County of Huelva and with the Campo de Tejada, lies Carrión. Whoever passes through the Autopista del V Centenario will be able to clearly appreciate, looking at the Alcarayón valley, from which it received the Arab name, the white hamlet of Carrión.

It bears in its name the trail of the Marquises of Céspedes, since D. Gonzalo de Céspedes, knight twenty-four of the council of Seville, bought the manor of the then Carrión de los Ajos from King Philip II in 1576.

Our town is linked to the Manila shawl, since the first workshops in women's homes arose in the thirties of the 20th century, a tradition that continues today.

Our municipality is also a benchmark in research and innovation in the water sector, since the Carrión de los Céspedes Experimental Plant, belonging to the CENTA Foundation, is located there, a singular and unique technological platform in the world.

This guide to Carrión de los Céspedes will be very useful to move around its streets, locate each bar, restaurant or visitable places of tourist or cultural interest or know where its main festivals are held.
