The Church of Our Lady of the Assumption, in Tamajón (Guadalajara), stands atop a small hill to the north of the town center, at an altitude of approximately 1,097 meters, within the Diocese of Sigüenza-Guadalajara. It was built in the 13th century in the Romanesque style, with significant renovations in the 16th century that introduced Renaissance influences. In the 12th century, the area belonged to the Common Lands of the Town and Territory of Atienza; in the 15th century, it passed to the Mendoza family.

Although it is associated with El Cid, it was never related to the mercenary knight, but rather to the first Count of El Cid, Rodrigo Días de Vivar y Mendoza, a noble title granted by the Catholic Monarchs in 1492. This fortress, dating back to the High Middle Ages, watches over the Henares valley at the foot of the Alcarria Mountains. A natural paradise with a variety of altitudes.

The Church of Our Lady of the Assumption in Tamajón, Guadalajara, is a beautiful example of 13th-century Romanesque architecture, with Renaissance reforms in the 16th century. Located on a small hill to the north of the town, this church stands out for its impressive façade and its rich history. The temple has a rectangular floor plan with three sections and three naves, with a flat chancel and a porticoed gallery on the south façade. Inside, you can admire mural paintings from different periods and Baroque and Gothic altarpieces that decorate the main altar and the side chapels.

Beautiful Romanesque church with porticoed atrium.

imposing castle, called del Cid, although Rodrigo Díaz never lived there. The current Jadraque castle is almost entirely the work of the last third of the 15th century, that is, from the last group of medieval castle-palaces, already on the verge of disappearance at this time. Its reform in the 15th century was due to the master builder Alberto de Caravajal, helped by stonemasons from Northern Spain. This master builder also directed the renovation of the castle of Puebla de Almenara (Cuenca). It is likely that the outlines of the reform were given by the architect Juan Guas, although his intervention is not documented. The renovation work greatly affected almost everything that had previously existed there, as the natural terrain of the hill was even lowered. Only what was a large pentagonal tower in the bow was used in the construction of the new late medieval castle (probably towards the middle of the 20th century, almost the entire tower was dismantled to serve as a quarry). One of its panels is fallen today and the castle is closed to visitors.

Beautiful and quiet town of Architecture between Negra and Dorada. With the famous Pera Galena River (Pelagallinas), with very cool waters in summer. You can start routes to La Junta de los Ríos with the Bornova, Climb the Alto Rey or head towards the Cueva del Oso. In any case you can enjoy Great Tranquility.

Beautiful Castle of Muslim origin, later rebuilt by the Mendoza family from Guadalajara.

The reservoir is located on the bed of the Cañamares River, and on its banks the town of Pálmaces de Jadraque offers wonderful views of the reservoir, especially at sunsets that are worthy of a postcard.
