A Walk Around Baeza & Ubeda, Spain
Baeza, formerly also written as Baéza, is an Andalusian town in the province of Jaén in southern Spain. It lies perched on a cliff in the Loma de Úbeda, the range separating the Guadalquivir River to its south from the Guadalimar to its north. It is now principally famed for having some of the best-preserved examples of Italian Renaissance architecture in Spain. Along with Úbeda, it was added to UNESCO's list of World Heritage Sites in 2003. The former Visigothic bishopric of Baeza remains a Latin Catholic titular see.
Úbeda is a town in the province of Jaén in Spain's autonomous community of Andalusia, with some 36,025 inhabitants. Both this city and the neighbouring city of Baeza benefited from extensive patronage in the early 16th century resulting in the construction of a series of Renaissance style palaces and churches, which have been preserved ever since. In 2003, declared the historic cores and monuments of these two towns a World Heritage Site.

The former Baeza Cathedral is built over a former mosque. It was first used in Christian service in the 12th century during Castile's first period of rule. It was then used as a mosque before its reconquest in the 13th century. The most ancient parts are the cubic base of the bell tower and three (presently hidden) Islamic arches. Most of the present Renaissance-influenced Gothic structure—including the nave with two aisles, pilasters, and crossed vaults—dates to around 1529. The tower was redone in 1549 and the Chapel of St Michael was added in 1560. Construction was completed under Andrés de Vandelvira.
Town Hall (Ayuntamiento), a Plateresque building originally built as a combined courthouse and prison, leading to two separate main entrances. Baeza University, established in 1533. Santa Cruz Church, a Romanesque church with a two-aisle nave and semicircular apse. A side wall incorporates a Visigothic arch. St Paul's Church, a Gothic church with a Renaissance portal with a two-aisle nave and Gothic chapels. Includes the tomb of Pablo de Olavide.
Baeza is 327 km (203 mi) south of Madrid by highway. The Linares–Baeza RENFE railway station is 15 km (9 mi) away to the southwest; it lies on the Linares-Almeria line. There are bus connections to Granada, Málaga, and Madrid. Granada (132 km or 82 mi) and Málaga (241 km or 150 mi) are the nearest international airports.

A Walk Around The Towns of Ubeda & Baeza, Spain
The urban morphology of the two small cities of Úbeda and Baeza in southern Spain dates back to the Moorish ninth century and to the Reconquista in the 13th century. An important development took place in the 16th century, when the cities were subject to renovation along the lines of the emerging Renaissance. This planning intervention was part of the introduction into Spain of new humanistic ideas from Italy, which went on to have a great influence on the architecture of Latin America.
What there is to see: Ubeda, the larger of the two: Plaza Vazquez de Molina, the Capilla de Salvador, and many magnificent palaces, including the Palacio de las Cadenas. Interesting potters' quarter - look out for traditional deep green glazes; cultural festival in May.
Baeza, nearby but half the size of its neighbour: Plaza Santa Maria, the Santa Iglesia Catedral, the Palacio de Jabalquinto, with its extraordinary facade, the Ayuntamiento and the University.

Baeza (Jaén) Spain - Main Plaza area, UNESCO World Heritage Site
Located in the southern region of Spain, known as Andalusia, the small town of Baez is a UNESCO World Heritage Site because of the the many historic architectural buildings it contains, primarily of the Italian Renaissance architecture style. The number of buildings are too numerous to list here, so please check out this wikipedia link which give the details and history on these landmarks:
We began our walk in the main plaza area, grabbing a bite to eat after our 2 hours/very enjoyable drive from Cordoba. We were going to stay overnight at Ubeda, which is only a few miles away, but decided to tour Baeza first, spending about 5 - 6 hours doing so.
Like most of the towns in the area, Baeza was under Moorish rule for quite a number of years before being reclaimed by Christians. Some of the Moorish influence can still be seen in the oldest structures there, including the walled arch, etc. Most of the buildings the town is noted for came after the rebuilding of the town, hence the Italian Renaissance look that is so prevalent in the churches and other notable buildings.
Credit must be given for the music used as background, per You Tube: I Am Running with Temporary Success from a Monstrous Vacuum by Chris Zabriskie - it is heard during the second half of the video, during the slide show presentation.

The song heard at the very beginning of the video is Highway Wildflowers by Bird Creek, which came from the free You Tube audio library.
I did the camcorder filming from the car as we drove, did all of the still photography, chose the two songs heard, edited it all and uploaded to You Tube. Ed did most of the camcorder filming as we strolled about, along with any narrations heard.

Arco de Villalar y Puerta de Jaén - Baeza, Jaén
Son dos estructuras antiguas situadas en la plaza del Pópulo de Baeza, en la provincia de Jaén, Andalucía (sur de España). Ambas son reconstrucciones ya que por mandato de Isabel la Católica en 1476 son derivados lienzos de muralla, puertas y torres.
El arco de Villalar se construye en 1521 para conmemorar la batalla de Villalar en Valladolid.
La puerta de Jaén es construida en 1526, decorada con el escudo imperial, para la visita de Carlos V a la ciudad tras su boda con Isabel de Portugal.
El lugar donde se levantan está lleno de simbolismo pues desde este partían las tropas a luchar contra el último reino musulmán en la península.
Forma parte del conjunto monumental renacentista de Baeza que junto al de Úbeda fue declarado patrimonio de la humanidad por la Unesco en el año 2003.
