Bonares is an agricultural municipality surrounded by the beautiful banks of the Tinto River and places such as the popular “Corchito”, 2 km from the town. A Roman necropolis, as well as other archaeological remains found in its area, tell us about the remote origins of this town that belonged, after the Christian reconquest, to the County of Niebla.
As regards crafts, work such as saddlery and esparto weaving, as well as the manufacture of polychrome ceramics and embroidery, is still carried out in Bonares. Fruity musts, mistelas and Easter cakes are the most characteristic products of Bonares' gastronomy.
Among its festivals, we highlight the Cruces de Mayo, celebrated in May, and the Patron Saint Festivities in honor of Santa María Salomé, celebrated in October.
