Next to Alto de los Llanos are these ruins which, it is said, were the headquarters of the Republican command.
Very close we can also find the geodesic vertex of the place, which is located at 746 meters of altitude.

I provide a photo of this place, where you can see several bullet holes in one of the walls of one of the buildings. The holes are quite grouped and at the height of a normal-sized person's head. The impact wall is on the east side. This position was defended by a tabor of marksmen from Ifni and by a century of phalanx from Valladolid. Some historians say that the first shots of the Battle of Brunete probably took place in this place on July 5, 1937. This position fell on the 7th. The attackers of the Red Army came after climbing the valley located to the west, the Valdeyerno valley, and from the north along the livestock route that crosses this plateau, leading to Valdemorillo. The impacts that can be seen on the facades of the east side of both buildings, I believe, are not the product of combat, but rather of shootings on those walls, of captured national soldiers.
