A small but very interesting museum, with great video to start off with before exploring the old traditional wine stores and exhibits of the ‘costumes’ the horses wear for the running of the wine events

A fascinating museum about the wine horses of Murcia. There is a display of the beautiful hand-made costumes for the horses over many years. It is interesting to see the traditions continue.

Fantastic museum in Caravca de la Cruz well worth the visit as was the town...simply a beautiful historic Spanish town

A fascinating small museum. A short video show will explain everything about the tradition of running the horses here. Then you can view the stunning decorations that are lovingly made for them, the fine detail is incredible. I would recommend a visit here to learn the history and traditions of this famous event before visiting the actual area where the run takes place once a year.

A hidden gem in the countryside of Murcia. What a beautiful place to visit and to discover. Its people so friendly and engaging, a place with interesting history too.

A great insight into the history of Caravacia! The embroidery on the horses coats and other accessories is amazing!

I didn't visit as pets are not allowed in, there is no obvious sign outside and inside you have to search for the notice on a back wall, it is not obvious. I would have liked to visit, maybe they should consider a rule that you can visit with small pets that are contained in a pet carry bag or pram as do other cities and towns , for example you can visit everything in Merida as long as your pet is carried in an appropriate bag.

Well worth a visit as the place is stunning. I would also recommend the museum as they have some beautiful artifacts. To see the True Cross you have to be there at 30 mins past the hour when the Basilica is open.

Beautiful and you see over the town from there, not so difficult to walk up there

A beautiful piece of architecture that is free to enter. 16th & 17th century paintings adorn the walls, statues and tapestries decorate many spaces. It is an incredible space. The architecture spans different centuries but is beautifully woven together so as nothing appears to be out of place. An absolute must if you're in the region.

Only 3 stars as we had travelled 3 hours from Valencia to visit this famous site and the door was literally closed shut and locked in front of me. Apparently there was a mass being celebrated but when I managed to (rudely, I admit) gain entry through a side door there was "one" celebrant and "two" staff listening to a " recorded" mass, not a priest in sight!!! Practicing Christians at their best!! To clarify, we visited Sunday at 11, when their website says it's open. Now, remind me why the church is losing its respect.

Caravaca is dominated by the medieval Santuario de la Vera Cruz (Sanctuary of True Cross), and contains several convents and a fine parish church, with a miraculous cross celebrated for its healing power, in honor of which a yearly festival is held on 3th May.

Always like to visit Caravaca when in Spain. Very peaceful on this visit

I must say this was a real surprising experience. The history of the double cross is a mystery yet to be unveiled. Great prices and picked up a 5 ft pilgrim’s staff in the local village

(Translated by Google) It was a very interesting and beautiful visit and the guide was very nice, she did not stress the traditions and the beautiful costumes. (Original) A sido una visita muy interesante y bonita y guía muy agradable no espricaba las tradiciones y los traje precioso

(Translated by Google) Catholic temple of Renaissance style built in the 16th century. It has three naves with a hall floor plan and four ribbed Ionic style columns that support the ribbed vaults that cover the interior of the church. It also has seven attached chapels. Inside, the main altarpiece stands out, in baroque style and from the Church of the Company of Jesus in Caravaca. On the outside, its Renaissance façade stands out, in the shape of a triumphal arch, decorated with pilasters and Ionic semi-columns, in addition to the shields of the Order of Santiago and the Council of Caravaca. The bell tower, used as an ecclesiastical prison, also stands out. (Original) Templo católico de estilo renacentista construido en el siglo XVI. Presenta tres naves con planta de salón y cuatro columnas nervadas de estilo jónico que sostienen las bóvedas de crucería que cubren el interior de la iglesia. Cuenta además con siete capillas anexas. En su interior destaca el retablo mayor, de estilo barroco y procedente de la Iglesia de la Compañía de Jesús de Caravaca. En el exterior destaca su portada renacentista, con forma de arco de triunfo, decorada con pilastras y semicolumnas jónicas, además de los escudos de la Orden de Santiago y el Concejo de Caravaca.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful parish, on the way to being a cathedral, since it was left half built because at the time there was not enough money due to the economic situation.

(Original) Preciosa parroquia, camino de ser catedral, ya que se quedó a medio construir debido a que en la época no alcanzó el dinero por la situación económica.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful and interesting temple in the historic center of Caravaca de la Cruz The current building began to be built in 1526, which has inside an interesting main altarpiece and a large set of sculptures. The primitive medieval church of El Salvador was already built in the year 1344 when Caravaca de la Cruz passed to the Order of Santiago. It was a Gothic building. It's worth a visit!

(Translated by Google) Building from the 17th century, with a square floor plan.  It is one of the 14 hermitages that were part of the Via Crucis. Built of ashlar and arranged on a considerable area of ​​land, it is covered by a lime concrete vault. It has a rectangular floor plan and a hipped roof whose hills rest on a wide cornice. The façade that gives its name to the building has a large wrought iron grille, like a window, which is its only decoration. Above the grille you can see a tombstone that contains the names of those who ordered it to be built: Mr. Fco. Muñoz de Otalora and Mrs. Catalina López. Inside there is only a solid altar table. Its location, on the mountain known as “El Calvario”, constitutes a privileged point for a general view of the city. Its panoramic view of both the city and the mountain area is one of the most attractive in Caravaca da la Cruz.

La fachada que da nombre al edificio, tiene una gran reja de hierro forjado, a manera de ventana que es su única decoración.Sobre la reja puede verse una lápida que contiene los nombres de quienes la mandaron construir: D. Fco. Muñoz de Otalora y Dña. Catalina López. En el interior solo se encuentra una sólida mesa de altar. Su ubicación, sobre el monte conocido como “El Calvario”,  constituye un punto privilegiado para una visión general de la ciudad. Su vista panorámica tanto de la ciudad como de la zona de montaña es una de las más atractivas de Caravaca da la cruz.

A lovely little museum packed with interesting artifacts and well worth a visit on route to the castle.

Beautiful building. A great museum and well worth a visit. Interesting artifacts.

(Translated by Google) Archaeological museum dedicated to the exhibition of pieces from sites in the Region of Murcia. The museum is located in the old Church of La Soledad, a Renaissance-style Catholic temple built in the 16th century on the remains of a previous church. Inside you can see archaeological pieces that span from the Paleolithic to the 20th century, highlighting the Iberian pieces from the towns of Los Villarres and Villaricos, or the Sanctuary of La Encarnación. (Original) Museo arqueológico dedicado a la exposición de piezas procedentes de yacimientos de la Región de Murcia. El museo se encuentra en la antigua Iglesia de la Soledad, un templo católico de estilo renacentista construido en el siglo XVI sobre los restos de una iglesia anterior. En su interior se pueden observar piezas arqueológicas que abarcan del Paleolítico al siglo XX, destacando las piezas íberas procedentes de los poblados de Los Villarres y Villaricos, o del Santuario de la Encarnación

(Translated by Google) Located in the old town of Caravaca, very close to the Plaza del Arco and the Tourist Office. It is located inside the desecrated church of La Soledad, at the beginning of Subida al Castillo street. At first the collection may seem small, but it is an important sample of pieces found in the surroundings and the municipality of Caravaca. The pieces, among which we can find remains of ceramics, weapons, agricultural utensils, jewelry, coins, sculptures, among others, represent samples of a broad stage in the history of humanity, ranging from the Paleolithic and Neolithic to the Middle Ages. There are also samples of the Chalcolithic, the Iberian culture, the Roman period and the Arab period as well. Perhaps the most important samples, in terms of quantity and quality, belong to the Roman era, with several important sites in the municipal area. Perhaps the most important of these sites is the archaeological complex of La Encarnación, a few kilometers from Caravaca, very close to the district of Los Prados. In the complex, a sanctuary from the late Republican period stands out, from the first century BC, built on a previous Iberian temple. From this temple are the largest and most important remains in the museum, bases of columns, capitals and remains of the cornice, some of which are collected in my photographs. The museum is very well organized and the pieces are arranged chronologically to learn about the historical evolution of the city. Very attentive and friendly, the person in charge of visits to the museum. (Original) Situado en pleno casco antiguo de Caravaca, muy cerca de la plaza del Arco y de la Oficina de Turismo. Se ubica en el interior de la desacralizada iglesia de la Soledad, al inicio de la calle Subida al Castillo. En un principio puede parecer pequeña la coleccion, pero se trata de una importante muestra de piezas encontradas en los alrededores y el municipio caravaqueño. Las piezas, entre las que podemos encontrar restos de ceramica, armas, utensilios para la agricultura, joyas, monedas, esculturas, entre otros, representan muestras de una amplia etapa de la historia de la humanidad, que va desde el Paleolitico y el Neolitico hasta la Edad Media. Hay muestras tambien del Calcolitico, de la cultura Ibera, de la epoca romana y de la arabe tambien. Quiza las muestras mas importantes, en cuanto a cantidad y calidad, pertenecen a la epoca romana, con varios yacimientos importantes en el termino municipal. Quizas el mas importante de estos yacimientos es el complejo arqueológico de La Encarnación, a pocos kilómetros de Caravaca muy cerca de la pedanía de los Prados. En el conjunto, destaca un santuario de época tardorrepublicana, del siglo primero A.C., construido sobre un templo anterior ibérico. De dicho templo son los restos mas grandes e importantes que hay en el museo, bases de columnas, capiteles y restos de la cornisa, algunos de los cuales se recogen en mis fotografias. El museo esta muy bien organizado y las piezas ordenadas cronologicamente para poder conocer la evolucion historica de la ciudad. Muy atento y amable, la persona encargada de las visitas al museo.

We had a great dinner here. All the food was cooked, and tasted lovely. The service was very formal. No welcoming words, smiles or pleasant interactions with us, other than taking the orders. Very nice situation and views and we extremely appreciated the air conditioning as it was a very hot day.

Very peaceful and beautiful park. Easy to walk round as flat and accessible. Will be going back in the summer to visit again

A very tranquil place full of woodland, springs, history, caves and plenty of free parking. Been many times and always enjoy it, nice to have the tree shade in the Summer

Lots of little waterfalls at the moment. The carpark has moved but you can still visit. A lovely place to visit as a kind of park with space to run around and kick a ball about and lots of picnic tables.

Beautiful. Lovely to have a picnic and walking distance from the town. Good free car parking.

Beautiful spot to find some nature and have a little picnic, you’ll find some tables and benches for that. There’s a small stream flowing making it a chill place to wind down.

Well maintained nature park with river river running through. Plenty of seating and picnic area.

Its nit very visitable as a locked fate prevents you entering but it is a lovely buikding

The building is in the Renaissance style of singular beauty, where the semicircular arches and the pillars that give way to the chapels that form the transept, and account for the artistic innovations that were being carried out, due to the influence of the work in El Salvador that was carried out during the same years.
