Statue of Woman with traditional black dress Las Cobijadas in Vejer de la Frontera, Cadiz province, Costa de la luz, Andalusia, Spain. Numerous vestiges confirm the passage of Phoenicians, Carthaginians and Romans through this land. In the year 711 the battle of La Janda would take place very close to here, in which the Visigoths lost control of the peninsula in favor of the Arabs. Always walled, it still preserves several towers (del Mayorazgo, de San Juan and de la Corredera) and the four gates of the medieval town, perfectly integrated into the urban complex: the Arco de la Segur, the Villa, that of Sancho IV and the Closed Door. The castle (11th-16th centuries) is located in the highest part of the old town, accessed through a beautiful horseshoe arch. It combines Muslim and Christian elements. Sacred architecture has also left magnificent examples: the Divino Salvador Parish Church (14th-15th centuries) dominates the farmhouse from above and shows a beautiful evolution of Gothic-Mudejar, Renaissance and Baroque art; the church of the Conceptionist Nuns with the Arch of the Nuns; the Hospedería de San Francisco convent and, on the outskirts, is the Visigothic hermitage of Nuestra Señora de la Oliva. Among its civil buildings, the baroque palace of the Marqués de Tamarón and the house of the Mayorazgo stand out, both from the s. XVIII, or the windmills of San Miguel (s. XIX).
