The Department of Culture of the Municipality of Guadix, in collaboration with the Pedro Suárez Study Centre and the Provincial Council of Granada, has been running a route called “Guadix Teresiano -- following in the footsteps of Pedro Poveda in Guadix”. This visit is guided by experts and it started in mid-May as part of the programme entitled “Walking Guadix”.
On 18 May 2024 a group of people, guided by María Dolores Peralta and Maribel Díez, members of the Pedro Suárez Study Centre, followed the route starting at the Plaza de la Constitución and stopping at the places where Poveda carried out his work in Guadix.
Below, there is a graphic summary of this route:
