Zagrilla Alta Washhouse

Inaugurated by Mr Niceto Alcalá-Zamora, the first President of the Second Republic
The Zagrilla Alta Washhouse, located in Priego de Córdoba, is a charming public washhouse that reflects the traditions and rural life of days gone by. This picturesque spot, set amidst natural, mountainous surroundings, offers a glimpse into the past when the village women would gather to wash clothes and socialise. The washhouse, built of stone and roofed with tiles, retains its original structure, making it a living testament to traditional architecture. Furthermore, its proximity to natural springs highlights the importance of water in daily life and local culture.
