Tigaiga

The district of Tigaiga invites you to visit some of its old houses, such as the Casa de La Era, La Cantera or La Coronela, its chapels and the hermitage of Our Lady of Immaculate Conception, founded in 1617, next to the Hacienda De La Fuente. A few metres from the hermitage, is the old Tigaiga laundry area, declared of public utility in 1701.

Three festivals take place in Tigaiga throughout the year: the Living Nativity Scene, which is more than forty years old, the festival of San Antonio Abad, in mid January, and the festivities in honour of the patron saint, Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception, on the first Sunday of September.

The Hacienda La Coronela is worth mentioning, due to the stories about it, where during the wee hours noises and cries could be heard from its halls and corridors. This emblematic building is located very close to the sawmill along the path that goes to Lomito Vaso, also called Camino Nuevo. It intersects, on the left, with Calle La Paz, famous for the traditional puff pastry cakes that are made at Pastelería Paula, with a tradition inherited from the Montijo family since 1889.
