It is where sherry originated and it is one of the original centers of Flamenco. Frontera refers to its location formerly being on the frontier, or border, between the Moorish and Christian regions of Spain. But Jerez is not just a city of wines and beautiful buildings; it has much more to offer than that: home of the Carthusian horse, the fighting bull, cradle of flamenco art, capital of motorcycle racing and home to international sporting events, and on top of all that, declared to be of Artistic and Historical interest.
