Don´t Miss
Just visiting this whitewashed town with quiet squares and lovely buildings, including the town hall

The parish of Santiago, an old collegiate built over an old mosque in the 15th century in late Gothic style,

The ruins of the Arabic castle

The chapel of the Cruz from the 18th century, is abandoned and closed to worship, and of the old Arab castle only a few stones remain.

Outside the town there are two sites, Taivilla (Roman era) and Los Villares (old medieval town). Other places of ecological and scenic interest are the caves of Hoguera, Fuente Quebrada (spring), and Columnas; the spots of Chorredón, the plain of San Cristóbla and San Julián, and the Corta and Jácara chasms.

Casarabonela conserves the staging of the Passion during Easter, in which they have some outstanding processions.

In May is the festivity of the cross and during the last week of July they celebrate the fair and festivities of Santiago Apóstol

The 7th November for the pilgrimage for the patron saint Virgen del Rosario.

Other interesting celebrations on 12th December and 31st December for the bell ringing for the end of the year in the town hall's square.
