AGUILAR, or AGUILAR DE LA FRONTERA

This article appears in Volume V01, Page 428 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: ADA-AIZ
AGUILAR, or AGUILAR DE LA FRONTERA , a town of southern Spain, in the province of
Cordova
 ; near the small river Cabra, and on the CordovaMalaga railway. Pop. (1900) 13,236. Aguilar " of the Frontier " was so named in the middle ages from its position on the border of the Moorish territories, which were defended by the
castle
  of Anzur, now a ruin; but the spacious squares and
modern
  houses of the existing town retain few vestiges of Moorish dominion. The olives and
white
  wine of Aguilar are celebrated in Spain, although the wine, which somewhat resembles sherry, is known as Montilla, from the adjacent town of that name.
Salt
  springs exist in the neighbourhood, and to the
south
  there are two small lakes, Zonar and Rincon, which abound in fish.
