Houses in the rocks
The houses in the rocks in Setenil de las Bodegas (Province of Cadiz) constitute the main tourist attraction of this town, creating a unique urban framework in the province.
The layout of the village, adapting to the course of the river, reaches its peak in the lower part. It is there where the inhabitants have taken advantage of the pit created in the rock by the water to build their houses.
These types of constructions are called “shelter under rocks”, since they neither excavate nor are invasive for the rock. In this way they are used as part of the structure and interior enclosure of the house.
