    The Charterhouse of Talamanca del Jarama is a historical and architectural complex of great value located in the north of the Community of Madrid, in the municipality of Talamanca del Jarama.

    It was built in the 17th century by the Carthusian monks of the Monastery of El Paular (Rascafría).

    Its main function was agricultural, serving as a pantry and storehouse for products such as grain, wine, oil, and livestock to supply the mother monastery.

    The complex includes a wine cellar, chapel, cloister, stables, wine press, and other outbuildings that reflect the monastic and agricultural life of the time.

    Declared a Site of Cultural Interest (BIC) in the category of Monument in 2022, it preserves construction techniques from the 16th to the 18th centuries and maintains the historical landscape of the Jarama river valley.

      This building from the beginning of the 17th century is intended for agricultural exploitation carried out by the Carthusian monks who depended on the El Paular monastery. The estate preserves many of the original facilities such as the chapel, stables and winery. On one of its sides are the remains of the Arab wall.
