How to get there

Road transport

Retuerta del Bullaque is located in an exceptional nature site in the Cabañeros National Park, it is one of the most valuable protected reasons in the Toledo Mountains, a refuge for birds of prey, black storks, eagles, vultures and many other species in danger of extinction. Its landscape is formed by extensive grazing lands or “rañas” with rich seasonal pastures, the hills and the peaks which are the home to a variety of birds and mammals. Its magnificent natural surroundings welcome the performance of all manner of activities concerning nature.

Within the municipality, we find Pueblonuevo del Bullaque, next to the River Bullaque. It is a location which arose from the planning of the National Colonisation Institute, in the middle of the 20th century. The town's appearance is the whitewashed appearance of repopulated areas. Here we find the Casa de Palillos, the visitor reception centre for the Cabañeros National Park.

Tower of Abraham is an old Arab fortress, over the dam of the same name. Milagros is the name of the old Arab fortress towering over a cliff surrounded by the River Milagros and a hermitage used by the inhabitants of Las Ventas Con Peña Aguilera, in their procession that is held on the first weekend in September.

Within the municipal limits, we also find the so-called "Prim Castle", a building constructed in the 19th century, by the widows of General Prim, who bought the lands in the "disamortisation" period (1798-1924) where lands were sold off. It has a historicist brick style, as a palace, with the characteristics of a fortress, with a strong Roman nature.
