situated on the river Lucena, a tributary of the Genil. Lucena
old town has many exquisite churches including a parish church
dating from the 15th century, although the first thing that strikes
you is that Lucena appears to be entirely comprised of furniture
factories and outlets. Other industries are brandy making, bronze
lamps and pottery, especially very large earthenware jars used
for the storage of oil and wine. The courthouse in the town used
to be an eighteenth century palace, and has a striking marble
entrance. Splendid marble entrances are a feature of other landmarks
