Bailén
Bailén, a town in Andalusia's Jaén province, sits along the Sierra Morena corridor — a natural gateway linking central and northern Spain with the south — and has long supported active ceramic, wine, and olive-oil industries. The compact centre carries a real café and restaurant scene. Architecturally, the 15th-century parish church of Nuestra Señora de la Encarnación, built in the Isabelline Gothic style and declared a Historic Monument, stands alongside several chapels ranging from Gothic to Baroque.
