The Great Black Bull: The story of Spain's most iconic billboards dates back to the founding of a Cadiz brandy and sherry winery by an Englishman named Osborne. The bulls originally stood up to 4 meters tall and bore the Osborne name in red letters. The herd grew to 500 before anti-billboard legislation threatened their existence. Following a public outcry, they were removed from the street, the lettering removed, and rebuilt to a height of 14 meters.

The reservoir was built over a century ago from a small natural lake to provide irrigation water for agricultural land.

A beautiful village in the Sierra Riojana mountains. From here, you can take many hikes through the surrounding forests.
