As a crossroads, La Rioja is a mosaic of art and culture. Right from the Celtiberians up to the Christian civilisation, passing through the Visigoths, Romans, Arabs… The very atmosphere of La Rioja is that of a mixture, highly spiced with sharply contrasting traditions. Roman buildings are to be found alongside others with an Arabic influence, Medieval castles next to 3rd Century hermit caves. All the cultures of the Iberian Peninsula have a share in La Rioja.
