Olmeda de las Fuentes is a beautiful refuge of cobbled streets and whitewashed houses in the Alcarria region of Madrid. It is a suggestive hideaway among the extensive agricultural wastelands of the region and the narrow valleys that mark the particular orography of the territory. It is a pleasant and quiet place that was chosen a few decades ago by painters and artists to live, be inspired, create or simply rest in a delightful corner of the southeast of Madrid. And that is why the town is known as “Olmeda de los pintores” or the “town of artists”. The popular architecture is well cared for, the streets are narrow and steep, most are pedestrian, there are viewpoints and it is a pleasure to walk through the urban area following the Route of the painters or the Route of the fountains, which has a curious ethnographic museum of the Alcarria region of Madrid on the bank of the stream.

The unique urban style of Nuevo Baztán maintains the original Baroque model from the beginning of the 18th century, designed by José de Churriguera by order of Juan de Goyeneche, who had permission from Charles II to build glass, paper and textile factories on Spanish territory. The Navarrese businessman was originally from Arizkun, in the Baztán Valley, but spent time in Madrid because he had other properties and professional relations with the Court. He chose the site of Madrid's Alcarria to found an industrial and rural centre in honour of his homeland and commissioned the Madrid architect to build a glass factory, a farming village of half a thousand inhabitants, a palace, a monumental church and gardens with centuries-old pines and elms. The town preserves cobbled streets, stone squares, rural buildings from the time of its foundation, between 1709 and 1713, and palace gardens, a beautiful heritage complex declared a Historic-Artistic Monument in 1941 and a Site of Cultural Interest in 2000.

Fountain in the small park in front of the church.

On the Red List of Heritage for its "state of ruin and abandonment". The building, from the 16th century, was occupied until the 17th century. Exactly until the year 1767, the year in which Carlos III expelled the Society of Jesus, the Jesuits, from Spain.

In the main square, centered by a large fountain with four spouts that ends in a ball on which the date 1832 appears, the clock tower stands out, with several bodies, and the building of the parish church, dedicated to San Pedro Apóstol.

Nuevo Baztán is a population of industrial origin promoted by the editor, journalist and politician Juan de Goyeneche. The main building of this town is the Renaissance palace of Goyeneche itself, from the 17th century, which was declared a historical-artistic monument in 1941.

Unbeatable views over Loranca de Tajuña and the valley from the ruins of the Jesús del Monte Convent.

Municipality and town in the region of La Alcarria in the province of Guadalajara. The old part of the town is located on the right bank of the Tajuña river valley.
