Pillar of the Peace Neighborhood

Lanjarón is known for its many pillars or public fountains, which reflect its abundance of natural waters and form an essential part of its identity. These pillars, distributed throughout the municipality, have a traditional design and are famous for their pure and fresh waters. Among the most notable are the Pilar de San Sebastián, located in the main square, and the Pilar de las Flores, adorned with colourful flower pots. Each pillar has its own charm and is often accompanied by poetic inscriptions celebrating life and water. These water points are meeting places and a symbol of Lanjarón's connection with its natural springs.

Pillar of the Peace Neighborhood

From the railings,

on the mountain, mountain, mountain,

mules and shadows of mules

loaded with sunflowers.

A sky of white mules

closes its quicksilver eyes,

giving the quiet darkness

an ending of hearts.

And the water turns cold

so that no one touches it.

Wild and uncovered water

on the mountain, mountain, mountain.

On the bare mountain,

a Calvary,

clear water

and century-old olive trees.

Along the narrow streets,

masked men

and in the towers

weather vanes turning,

eternally turning.

Oh, lost town

in the Andalusia of tears!

(F. García Lorca)
