Copper once flowed through Minas de Riotinto like blood through veins, fueling empires and forging secrets in the sunbaked earth. Yet beneath the bright facades of Barrio de Bellavista and the imposing Casa de Dirección lie stories most travelers never hear.

This self-guided audio tour leads through winding streets and shadowed halls, unveiling the hidden history that pulses under everyday sights. Let your footsteps uncover dramatic plots and quiet mysteries left behind by foreign magnates, miners, and rebels.

Who plotted dangerous uprisings under the very roof of the Hospital de Riotinto? What hush-hush scandal threatened to tear apart the elite British enclave in Bellavista? And what curious relic was smuggled out of a director's office on a rainy night?

Move from leafy avenues to cavernous rooms as buried drama emerges with each turn. See Minas de Riotinto not as it is but as it truly was.

The secrets are waiting. Begin walking.
