Join MWR to our visit to Ubrique, one of the most beautiful White Villages of the Cadiz province. This town has been declared a Historical Site. Its Roman origins are revealed by the stretch of old Roman Road between Ubrique and Benaocaz and, in particular, by the valuable archaeological site of Ocuri, a Columbarium, of which there are few similar examples in the Iberian Peninsula. Examples of Muslim culture that have stood the test of time include the remains of the Cardela Fortress or Fátima Castle. The town’s medieval old quarter consists of narrow streets, picturesque corners, and beautiful squares. Not only is it beautiful and tranquil, but it is also a town with a long, interesting history which stretches over many epochs and empires.

Ubrique has also been producing leather goods since Roman times. Nowadays, leather from Ubrique is known internationally and you can find some of their pieces in the most exclusive fashion runways. You are sure to find some of the finest leather goods in the world in a city where leather is art!
