A good place to have a coffee with some good porras…

For its tower, which is worth visiting, and its tree-lined plaza where you can relax in the shade.

The current town of Villamanrique de Tajo emerged in the 15th century under the protection of the old fortress of Albuher, which was one of the castles and strongholds built in the 10th century by the Arabs during the rule of the Caliphate of Córdoba on the border of the Tagus River. The hamlet has a rural and peasant character, with linear streets and white facades in the great plain of the Tagus River, and is made up of the town centre itself and the agricultural centres of Buenamesón and Castillo de Tajo. The social centre is the Plaza de la Constitución, where the Town Hall is located, and the starting point of several hiking routes.

The Tower is the icon of Villarejo de Salvanés, it is a unique model of a keep among the constructions of medieval fortresses. Around it there are remains of the walls and rooms that completed the complex of the old castle of the town, occupied for several centuries by the knights of the Order of Santiago. The Plaza de la Constitución concentrates a good part of the monumental Villarejo de Salvanés, opposite the Tower is the church of San Andrés Apóstol, imposing and with tower-shaped buttresses that give a defensive appearance to the building. And one corner is occupied by the Casa de la Tercia, headquarters of the Encomienda Mayor de Castilla and current Ethnographic Museum. An interesting place for fans of the seventh art is the Museo del Cine, the first professional film museum in Spain.

The fountain, like all the architecture of the place, is a beautiful carved stone with its metal decorations that inexorably suffer the passage of time.

It is a shame that only the keep of the entire walled building is preserved, but it is also fortunate to miss out on enjoying this architectural beauty, whose shape is peculiar and unusual in this type of fortress.

The Chozo road is located on the outskirts of Tarancón and runs between crop fields and train tracks. Through here you can reach the Riánsares natural path.

It is a small town in the cereal steppe of La Mancha irrigated by the Riánsares. It can be seen from afar thanks to the tower of its church. The winding hills covered with scrub that surround it give the landscape a special charm.
