Presentation of Alameda

The municipality of Alameda (5,403 inhabitants in 2015; 6,510 ha; municipal website), located 75 km north of Málaga, on the border with the Provinces of Seville and Córdoba, is the northernmost municipality in the Province of Málaga.

Alameda has been identified with the Roman town of Astigis Vetus, mentioned by Pliny the Elder. This town might have succeeded Astapa, a town of Iberian-Phoenician settlement. In 208 BC, the town was seized and burned down by Lucius Martius, as a retaliation for its loyalty to Carthage. The Roman thermae of Alameda, used from the 1st century BC to the 4th century, were inscribed on the General Register of the Andalusian Historical Heritage, as an Archeological Zone, by Decree No. 87, adopted on 14 April 2009 by the Government of Andalusia and published on 27 April 2009 in the official gazette of Andalusia, No. 79, pp. 32-34 (text).

Once part of the Marquisate of Estepa, Alameda was made in 1848 an independent municipality, which was incorporated to the Province of Seville. The tradition recalls a local illuminati sect that sacrificed one of his members known as Parrito; persecuted, the sect vanished and remained known only in orally transmitted poems. In 1833, José María Hinojosa Corbacho "El Tempranillo" (1805-1833, the most famous Andalusian rascal in the 19th century) was killed in Alameda in a skirmish with former members of his band, and buried in the town's cemetery.
