Cultural heritage

A popular 1920s housing estate known as “Camp de Port”. The district is made up of small single- or double-storey terraced houses built along two streets that come together in a “Y” shape. The houses have a small enclosure at the front and a back door or yard at the rear. The 1920s district was named after the first Spanish air force aeroplane to fly between Europe and America; its streets are named after the aeroplane’s crew: Aviador Franco, Aviador Ruiz de Alda and Aviador Durán. The district used to have schools and shops, such as the Peña cellar, which a few decades ago had the idea of adding Grape Crushing to its big annual festival’s activities, an event held in September in memory of the vineyards there used to be in this area.
