Ubeda - Spain
Ubeda was in the so called Nazaries Route, from Granada to Navas de Tolosa.
As you can read in the sign, the town of Ubeda was founded by the Romans in Caesar Augustus times, then conquered by the Arabs in the VIII century, and liberated by the Christians in the XIII century (the sign says that it was re-conquered in the year 1233 by our King Fernando III).
According to a legend, Ubeda was founded by a descendant of Noah (yes, the one of the Ark).
Behind the sign there is one of the many churches in Ubeda. It was closed and could not see it.
