Historical background: A famous watch tower called “Torre de Calahonda” is located in the center of the property. Built 1575, it served as part of a defense chain of watch towers protecting against potential pirate attacks. The line of watch towers stretches from the Andalusian coast all the way to Cadiz. Surrounded by crew houses at that time, the towers were well-supplied with necessities and were well looked after by the crews residing close to the towers. Therefore, some of the towers still stand to this very day.
