How to get there

Road transport

This village has a relevant urban centre, thanks to its regular planned streets and homogenous construction types. The buildings are very interesting due to their urban and rural features, and there are both labour men’s houses and palace dwellings.

The functional typology of buildings is main agricultural.

We can highlight the Plaza Mayor (Main Square) as one of the main sites. One of its angles is closed off with remains of street arches and its perimeters are confined by the Town Council, the Inn and a noble house, with this creating an interesting location.

Two outstanding religious buildings are: The Santa Ana Hermitage, on the Las Mesas road, a 15th-century building, and the Asunción Parish Church with a single nave shaped as a Latin cross.
