Arcos de la Frontera


Arcos de la Frontera is a one of the "Pueblos Blancos", the "White Towns of Andalusia".
The old part of the town is located on a steep cliff above the river Guadalete. Arcos was an independent Moorish town for long. Though Alphonso X of Castile expelled the Moors. The area was a frontier between the Christian and the Moorish troops upto 1492, when Granada after a long siege ultimatively fell, what ended the Reconquista.
