The never-ending roundabout

Highlight • Structure

This roundabout that had not started construction for several years, almost a year ago they decided to build it with a somewhat original design because it is a sundial, but the work has been stopped for several months without being able to finish it yet 🤷‍♂️. Perhaps one of these years we will see it finished and even well built.

Artificial turf football field

Highlight • Rest Area

Within the sports facilities of "Las Fuentezuelas" there is an artificial grass soccer field for the training of the main soccer teams of the city. It is also used by different soccer schools to teach students the practice of this popular sport.
Sometimes they play lower league games because the stands are not particularly large.

Train Car on the Vía Verde del Aceite

Highlight • Structure

It is a reference point that opens the door of the Vía Verde el Aceite that connects the capital of Jaén with Puente Genil in the province of Córdoba. Vandalism and lack of civility have left it somewhat battered, but there it resists, hoping that all passers-by can see it and admire it.

Eternal foundations

This is an unfinished project to build a bridge over the train tracks.
This project has been on hold for something like 35 years without anyone knowing anything or whether it will ever be completed or demolished...
