    This town, popularly known as Orellanita, is connected, according to some legends, with Roman times, specifically with a Roman legion called Aurelia, supposedly based in this place, from which the place name Aureliana would have arisen and, from it, Orellana. In its medieval times it is located in the population privilege granted by Enrique II to Alvar García Bejarano, owner of the castle of the Bejaranos and who would change his title to that of Orellana.

      Orellana de la Sierra is a small town located on the southern slopes of the Sierra de Pela. Looking from the town you can see the Orellana Reservoir to the south. While you're in town, check out Alvar García Bejarano's fortress-palace next to the Iglesia Parroquial del Espíritu Santo.
