Steeped in history, Gaucín has been shaped by Iberians, Phoenicians, Romans, Visigoths, and Muslims, each leaving a mark on its cultural and architectural heritage. The village celebrates its vibrant past and present through numerous festivals, including a unique Easter celebration, a lively carnival, a cultural week in late July, and the annual feria in early August.
