Estepa

Few towns in Andalusia have a history as closely tied to the making of mantecados and polvorones as Estepa. Set on the slopes of the Sierra del Becerrero in the province of Seville, the town overlooks the rolling olive-growing country of the Sierra Sur. Its sweet-making workshops are particularly active before Christmas, when these traditional confections are distributed across Spain. Above the older streets rises the Torre de la Victoria, the surviving tower of a former convent and one of Estepa’s best-known monuments. Olive oil and confectionery remain central to local identity.
