Palomares del Río

The town of Palomares del Río is located to the southwest of Sevilla, on the eastern edge of the region of Aljarafe and leaning over the river Guadalquivir.

The urban area sits in the canyon that is drawn between the Guadalquivir and the River Pudio. Palomares urban development has not occurred on the coast road (east), but inward, towards the River Pudio. The topographic features have impeded historically the growth towards the north.

The oldest settlements date back to Roman times due to the remains found
In the period of Al-Andalus it would be a farm, from which the current population.
The Christian conquest was carried out, together with other nearby nuclei by Fernando III. After the conquest it would increase its importance.
