Super cool water to replenish your strength

The Valmores watering hole was restored in 2022, recovering an essential piece in the ethnographic heritage of Pezuela de las Torres. The first references to the fountain appear in the Topographic Relations of 1578. In 1735, reforms and improvements were made to the original spring, making it essential in the daily life of the countryside. The construction has a functional design to water livestock at a crossroads of the Alcarreño moor with trees and benches to take a break.

The ethnographic complex of the Fuente Grande de Corpa is an important element of the local heritage. It was built in 1897 by local stonemasons Francisco and Vicente, according to an inscription attached to the wall of the watering hole. The water reaches the stone basins from two different springs in an old cattle rest area at the Cordel de la Senda de la Galiana, although there had been a powerful spring for a long time before. The largest pond was a public washhouse and one of the jets has its own name, it is the Collantes spout and was an old war cannon.

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.

The Valmores fountain, an Asset of Heritage Interest of the Community of Madrid, is a good example of the historical sources existing in the region, closely linked to livestock farming and the livestock routes that facilitated the movement of herds through the territory. It is attached to the base of a bank, a wide unproductive slope that links dry fields arranged at different levels, and preserves the original catchment system intact, maintaining an acceptable flow.

In restoration works, it presents a beautiful appearance

Fountain in the small park in front of the church.

Interesting work of the s. XV, which allows us to appreciate how a castle was arranged when the use of artillery had already been imposed: harquebuses and cannons. It is erected on a plain, and preserves both its interior and towers, as well as the outer enclosure and the moat. Free access to the outside. To visit the interior, contact the Pioz town hall, telephone 949.272.076.
