===========
Villanueva del Trabuco is in the region of Antequera, and can be reached from Malaga or Antequera by the autovía, only 3.6 kilometres from the town. Its ideal situation between Malaga and Antequera has made it, in recent years, a favoured place of residence for the people of the two larger urban centres.
The municipality of Villanueva del Trabuco is watered by the rivers Guadalhorce and Higueral, on whose banks there are various trekking routes sighposted. The town centre is very beautiful, especially in the Barrio de los Villares, the oldest barrio in the town, with winding streets and low, whitewashed houses decorated with window pots. In the centre too is the Plaza del Prado, the social and business centre of the town, where one can find the Fuente de los Tres Caños, from which water flows all the year around, even in times of drought.
Villanueva del Trabuco has been lived in a very long time, although it is not one of the oldest towns in the province. The place where the present urban area sits was first settled in the time of the re-conquest, but some historians believe the Romans had a loose settlement here too. The first documented evidence we have of the town named Trabuco dates from April 12th, 1620, and the relevant documents are now in the Municipal Archives of Archidona. It refers to a meadow called Trabuco with more than 300 fanegas (a grain measurement) that belonged to the municipality of Archidona. The urban centre grew up in the early 1700s, when Carlos III decided to repopulate areas of Andalucía with German and Flemish settlers. The town gained its independence from Archidona in 1808.
FIESTAS
The festival in honour of the patron saint of the town, the Virgen de los Dolores, takes place in September. The Candelaria takes place on February 1st, and the Holy Week celebrations hold a special place in the hearts of the people of Villanueva del Trabuco. The important days here are Holy Thursday and Good Friday, with processions through the streets. The popular sanmarqueo festival, in honour of San Marcos, takes place on April 25th, in which the people of the town head out to the countryside to eat and have fun. The Barrios de Beatas and the Cortijo festivals are in the middle of May, and the annual Feria takes place in the first week of June. A few days later the Barrio de San Antonio organises a festival in honour of its patron saint. The festival of San Juan is very important in the Los Morales barrio, and lasts two days. On August 24th, 25th and 26th the most important cattle fair of the province takes place in the town, known as the Feria de Agosto, and celebrated since 1853.
GASTRONOMY
The gastronomy of Villanueva del Trabuco is varied, but the most traditional dishes are olla, made from pork and chickpeas; the San José stew, the gazpacho and the fried porra. There is also a wide selection of pork products available here. The pastries of the area are excellent too. Villanueva del Trabuco claims to be the town in the province with most painters, inspired, no doubt, by the beauty of the surrounding landscape. In the field of craftwork, the principal items produced are in metal, wickerwork and esparto grass. Some of the finished products are actually used still in the countryside, and most are available in local shops.

Sevilla = Seville is the capital and largest city of the autonomous community of Andalusia and the province of Seville, Spain. It is situated on the plain of the river Guadalquivir. The inhabitants of the city are known as sevillanos (feminine form: sevillanas) or hispalenses, after the Roman name of the city, Hispalis. Seville has a municipal population of about 690,000 as of 2016, and a metropolitan population of about 1.5 million, making it the fourth-largest city in Spain and the 30th most populous municipality in the European Union. Its Old Town, with an area of 4 square kilometres (2 sq mi), contains three UNESCO World Heritage Sites: the Alcázar palace complex, the Cathedral and the General Archive of the Indies. The Seville harbour, located about 80 kilometres (50 miles) from the Atlantic Ocean, is the only river port in Spain. Seville is also the hottest major metropolitan area in the geographical Southwestern Europe, with summer average high temperatures of above 35 °C (95 °F).
Seville was founded as the Roman city of Hispalis. It became known as Ishbiliyya after the Muslim conquest in 712. During the Muslim rule in Spain, Seville came under the jurisdiction of the Caliphate of Córdoba before becoming the independent Taifa of Seville; later it was ruled by the Muslim Almoravids and the Almohads until finally being incorporated into the Christian Kingdom of Castile under Ferdinand III in 1248.[3] After the discovery of the Americas, Seville became one of the economic centres of the Spanish Empire as its port monopolised the trans-oceanic trade and the Casa de Contratación (House of Trade) wielded its power, opening a Golden Age of arts and literature. In 1519, Ferdinand Magellan departed from Seville for the first circumnavigation of the Earth. Coinciding with the Baroque period of European history, the 17th century in Seville represented the most brilliant flowering of the city's culture; then began a gradual economic and demographic decline as silting in the Guadalquivir forced the trade monopoly to relocate to the nearby port of Cádiz.
The 20th century in Seville saw the tribulations of the Spanish Civil War, decisive cultural milestones such as the Ibero-American Exposition of 1929 and Expo '92, and the city's election as the capital of the Autonomous Community of Andalusia.

A step closer to justice for victims of Franco’s dictatorship in Spain
An Argentine judge has ordered the exhumation of the remains of Timoteo Mendieta. He was executed by Franco’s forces at the end of Spain’s civil war and dumped in an unmarked mass grave on the edge of Guadalajara’s municipal cemetery.
This is a big victory for his daughter, 90-years old Ascension Mendieta, who had to travel to Argentina to get the right to give her father a proper burial.

SPAIN'S MOST INDEBTED VILLAGE OWES MORE THAN 16 MILLION EUROS
(31 May 2012) At first sight this is just another sleepy Spanish town enjoying a quiet summer's day to the soundtrack of birdsong.
However, the 3,500 residents of Pioz are anything but worry free. They live in Spain's most indebted village.
The small town just 60 kilometres (37 miles) north of Madrid would need more that 7,000 years to pay off its soaring debt, a Public Administration official said recently.
Rows of newly built apartments lie empty in Pioz.
Banners on buildings show the heavily reduced apartment prices. But they're still not selling.
Nadira Dakarpov, the first person to move to the newly built development in Pioz says she bought her house for 120,000 euros (148,500 US dollars).
Now you pay 95,000 (117,500 US dollars) and you get two floors and everything. I hope more people will come, she said on Thursday.
The town mayor, who claims the town owes 16 million (m) euro (20.5 million (m) US dollars), said the previous administration, cushioned by Spain's construction boom, started several projects in Pioz which it could no longer afford once the real estate bubble burst.
Former socialist mayor Emilio Roncon denies the debt is that high, claiming it doesn't amount to more than 8 million (m) euros (10.25 million (m) US dollars).
But Rodriguez says she has bills that prove otherwise.
Among the debt running projects are a local pool, a 7 million (m) dollar water purification plant and a medical centre, all lying idle and empty.
Pioz residents are upset that the town has become famous for its debt but are joining efforts to make the situation a bit more bearable, even volunteering their time on odd jobs that previously municipal workers would have performed, in exchange for food.
I try to look ahead to a nice future, otherwise I'd slash my wrists or jump out the window, says resident Elena Albert.
I do try to laugh a bit about it and look at it in an optimistic way because otherwise this will end badly, very badly.
Mayor Amelia Rodriguez says the municipality owes money to everyone and can't even afford to keep the streetlights on at night.
Like some 4,623 other indebted municipalities, Pioz has joined a government plan to receive funds to help meet its debt.
In exchange it has to make adjustments to one day repay those funds.
But it's still not enough. Rodriguez, who became mayor of Pioz in 2011, says she hasn't since stopped working to manage the town's finances.
She is making cuts everywhere she can and setting priorities, like choosing between celebrating the annual parties with bullfighting or paying gas suppliers to be able to heat the local school.
I would like, and I think it's my duty, to believe that we still have a future full of hopes, she says, trying to stand up against the odds.
Lorenzo Robisco, spokesman of conservative ruling Popular Party in Castilla la Mancha region, says the previous Socialist administration wasted public money and no one is accountable for it.
That's Spain big problem. Those who have created debt for many generations and have thrown people's tax money away, leaving responsible people who come after to pay for it, have run away. The don't even want to rule any more.
