Luque is a municipality of Spain belonging to the province of Córdoba, Andalusia. The municipality spans across a total area of 140.69 km2 and, as of 1 January 2023, it has a registered population of 2,860.
The settlement lies at about 662 metres above mean sea level at the feet of the Subbaetic ranges.
There is evidence of human presence in the area since at least the end of the Neolithic. The place is first mentioned in Islamic sources as the seat of a ḥiṣn ('Ḥiṣn Lukk') in the context of its seizure by Cordobese loyalists in 909. The Crown of Castile conquered the fortress at some point between February 1240 and March 1241. A lordship was created after the conquest. Luque was also a holding of the Order of Santiago for a time. From 1293 to 1374 it was part of the jurisdiction of the city of Córdoba. In 1374, the Trastámaras granted the town and castle of Luque to a turncoat of the Castilian Civil War as a reward.

What people eat in Andalucía when they eat well.
Tomato, oil and bread, well chilled in summer; every household has its own touch.
From the Andalusian sierras, thinly hand-carved; order the tapa with your wine.
A good share of the world's extra virgin olive oil is made here, and breakfast is bread with it.
Flour, clean oil and a quick fry; a coastal custom that climbs to the sierra.
Almost every village has its market day and its producers: the cheesemaker, the baker, the vegetable garden next door. Ask at the tourist office or the bar on the square; they'll tell you where to buy straight from the maker.
We haven't confirmed Luque's market day. Every village has its own: better to ask than to make it up.
