Loja, formerly Loxa, is situated at the western limit of Granada and is surrounded by the Sierra de Loja. In the heart of the town is the Encarnación Church, built in the 16th-18th centuries, with the Cultural Property designation, and the Alcazaba, the old fortress. There are also numerous guided tours available, exploring Loja's most emblematic places. Sierra Martilla is home to a Megalithic necropolis and a settlement from the same period. Loja has a large number of fountains and natural springs to be found in different parts of the town centre, such as its 25-spout fountain, and Fuente Santa, renowned for the medicinal properties of its waters.
