Solar Eclipse
Come and enjoy a bite to eat in the sun!
A fascinating phenomenon
On 29 March there will be a spectacular partial solar eclipse… And what is that? Well, the Moon will come between the Sun and the Earth, hiding a small portion of the star from our point of view. For an hour and a half we will see how the shadow grows and shrinks, using a multitude of interesting instruments such as solar telescopes, special filters and glasses that will allow us to see it live and direct.

Learn to look with different eyes
In this experience we will travel through every corner of the firmament in search of its constellations and legends, discovering a large number of fascinating creatures that have awakened the imagination of our ancestors.
Inner Universe: Well-being and Astronomy in the Sierra Sur of Jaén
We live immersed in the hustle and bustle of daily routine, hardly giving ourselves the opportunity to stop and look inward. The contemplation of the night sky reminds us of how small we are in the immensity of the cosmos, but also of the depth of our own inner universe.
Inner Universe: Wellness and Astronomy in the “Sierra Sur de Jaén” is a retreat designed to combine stargazing with mindfulness, nature and local gastronomy. A weekend to disconnect, breathe and marvel at the cosmos from one of the clearest skies in Europe.
