The Town

Discover La Encarnación

The Nativity is a hamlet of Caravaca de la Cruz, a charming stop on the Camino del Argar. Its main monument is the parish church, an interesting example of rural Murcian Baroque. The locality, of agricultural character, is nestled in a beautiful natural environment, ideal for hiking. For the pilgrim, it offers a rest in a peaceful atmosphere, with the opportunity to discover a lesser-known heritage. Its proximity to Caravaca de la Cruz, the Holy City, makes it an excellent prelude for a visit of great spiritual significance.
