The Arab geographer Al-Idrisi named this town in the 12th century: Lymbraya, meaning Ravine of Ghosts, a clear reference to the dry riverbed running through the town.
The 17th century Church of San Bartolomé, Casa del Marqués de Camachos and Casa de las Caballerizas are must-see places for visitors. On August 20-24, Librilla celebrates its festivities, when locals and visitors can enjoy Pitanzas, small round pieces of bread (around 200 grams) thrown by the thousands from the City Hall balconies. This unique Middle Ages tradition is the only one of this type in Spain.
