    The Jinquer-La Almenarilla Memorial Complex is located just 3 km west of the town of Alcudia de Veo; It is made up of four places where the Civil War left a mark that is still visible today, more than eight decades later:

    The Jinquer hamlet, of Arab origin, was evacuated during the Spanish Civil War and definitively abandoned after the war, remaining frozen in time.

      To get here the ideal is to do it from Alcudia de Veo. Taking the CV-215 in the direction of Algimia de Almonacid, at km 1 is the entrance to the Jinquer path. Following this path, you will reach the uninhabited area of Jinquer, where a few meters before the general information panel where the route begins is located. Once here, it is advisable to start the itinerary from the Jinquer desert, then take the path that passes next to Puntal del Gordo and end on the heights of Almenarilla, in the hills known as "Las Dos Tetas". The route passes between pines, holm oaks, cork oaks, poplars, chestnut trees and oaks in the heart of the Sierra de Espadán Natural Park, and allows you to enjoy privileged views over the coastal plain. In addition, it has indications along the way and explanatory panels together with some vestiges.

        This memorial complex has been created by the Alcudia de Veo City Council with the help of the Generalitat Valenciana (Department of Justice) and with the collaboration of various people and associations. The objective is to raise awareness about the devastating effects of war and the importance of conserving and disseminating heritage as a vehicle for transmitting our Historical Memory.
