What to see in Bedar

Although the church has undergone several modifications and repairs over the years, the square structure of the tower and the construction of red bricks remain as in the building’s infancy, although visibly affected by the ravages of time.
 

It is estimated that this hermitage was built in 1507, as a result of an agreement reached with the neighbouring town of Antas. Formerly, both towns were one, and in this homage was paid to the Virgin of the Head.

When the villages separated and the question arose which of the two would remain with the original hermitage, the image of the Virgin, and of course the festivities in her honour, the Solomonic decision was made to make two hermitages, one for each town, with their respective images and establish different dates of the parties, so that they did not coincide.
 

In the area you can find the hopper or funnel that allowed the loading of minerals to the railroad cars, a beautiful house known as "Casa Rosada", which is the house where the executives, chiefs, and engineers involved in the mine lived, as well as the regulatory hoppers.

These mines were active with the extraction of iron from 1525 and closed their operations in the year 1970. These mines represent evidence of the economic activity that for a long time sustained Bedar, but also an enclosure loaded with industrial history, in which parts, materials, and equipment that are considered historical and have been sheltered to preserve them.
 

The fountain, like the laundry room next to it, still flows with water and is one of the most characteristic sites of Bedar and its Arab-Spanish culture.
