With the patronage of "John the Baptist," this parish has chosen a saint who is considered a forerunner of Jesus Christ. In Christian theology, he is the voice of one crying in the wilderness prophesied in the Old Testament book of Isaiah: "A voice calls out: 'In the wilderness, prepare the way of the Lord; make straight in the desert a highway for our God!'" (Lutheran Bible). John is the son of Zechariah and Elizabeth, who was visited by the Blessed Virgin Mary when she learned from the Archangel Gabriel that she herself would give birth to Jesus Christ, and her—until then childless—relative was still pregnant in old age. The feast day of San Juan Bautista in the calendar of saints is June 24.

The Palace of the Counts of Cirat, also known as “the Big House”, is a Renaissance-style building of civil character. It was built in the last quarter of the 16th century by the nobleman from Almansa, Don Alfonso de Pina. This palace is located in the Plaza de Santa María in the town of Almansa. This palace is a historical and architectural testimony that deserves to be appreciated for its beauty and cultural significance. If you ever have the opportunity to visit Almansa, I recommend exploring this magnificent Renaissance building. 🏰🌟

The original construction could have been the work of the Almohads, who often used the rammed earth technique for their defensive buildings. The remains of rammed earth walls in this castle, traditionally attributed to the Almohad period, were actually built during the first decades of Christian rule, at the end of the 13th century or beginning of the 14th century. In the 14th century, Almansa and its fortress were incorporated into the lordship of Villena. Don Juan Manuel took advantage of the previous construction and ordered its walls to be rebuilt.

The Archpriestal Church of the Assumption in Almansa is an impressive historical and architectural monument. Located in the Plaza de Santa María, next to the Palace of the Counts of Cirat, this church was built in several stages from the 16th to the 19th century.
