Attractions in Rojales

The most exciting attraction in Rojales is undoubtedly the Cuevas del Rodeo – a unique system of cave dwellings that have been converted into art and cultural spaces. These caves offer a fascinating insight into local history and have become a centre of creativity and cultural activity in Rojales. Originally excavated in the 18th and 19th centuries, the caves served as housing for workers in the area. They were built into the mountain to provide natural insulation from the heat and culture. As people moved to modern housing, the caves were abandoned, but they have since been restored and converted into a cultural space. Today, the Cuevas del Rodeo are used by local artists as studios and galleries. Visitors can see art exhibitions, crafts and sculptures that reflect the local culture. Arts and crafts markets, workshops, concerts and other cultural events are often held in and around the caves.
