A village in the Sierra Norte of Guadalajara, at an altitude of approximately 1,084 meters. Its origins are medieval, possibly predating the Bronze Age. The name derives from the Arabic Hisn al-Ancina (“castle of the holm oak”). In 1844, the discovery of silver triggered a “silver rush,” transforming Hiendelaencina into a major 19th-century mining district, with up to 200 mines and a population that reached 5,000. A parish church dedicated to Saint Cecilia was built between 1848 and 1851, financed with funds from the mining town.

The Roman Bridge of Valdesotos, located near the hamlet of the same name in the Sierra Norte of Guadalajara, is actually of medieval origin, probably from the 12th century, with main use during the Middle Ages and converted as a passage to the Monastery of Bonaval.

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.

Great mountain biking here, stop off to visit the small cave.

Beautiful place with the charm of old churches, now abandoned but no less beautiful.

(Be careful with the bridge they say is over the river... with the floods of 2025 it has disappeared)

Beautiful village with fountains and bar
