20의 오카냐가지 명소 & 주요 장소

The place name Pelahustán seems to derive from the activity related to looms and the sale of linen that the population had in the past. In documents from the 18th century, it appears as Pelafustan. According to the dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy, the concept of pelafustán is equated with that of pelagatos, which in turn means “insignificant or mediocre person, without social or economic position.” The town also had several water mills worked by Salamancan teleworkers. Pelahustán is located at an altitude of 673 meters above sea level and borders the terms of Higuera de las Dueñas in the province of Ávila, Nombela, Nuño Gómez, Garciotum and El Real de San Vicente in the province of Toledo, and Ceniientos in the Community of Madrid 😊

One of the most demanding and emblematic passes in the entire province of Toledo and, without a doubt, a favorite among cyclists in the Sierra de San Vicente, since it can be combined with routes in multiple directions.

Pelahustán is one of those places whose name has several possible origins, and each of the theories tells a part of the history of the town. The most accepted relates the name to the fustan fabric that was produced here, either with linen or with a mixture of silk and cotton. This cloth was coarse and rough and was used by hunters as protection, and the expression "pelar el fustán" existed as a synonym for hunting, but there was also a theory that the town was called Pelafustán with a derogatory character, like where the pelafustanes live ( rascals). On the other hand, a simpler theory is that there was a settler of these lands called Pela Hustán. Nothing to see.

It is essential to visit the remains of the wall and the tower of the Castle of Bayuela, which gives its name to the town. In the Plaza de San Antonio you will see the zoomorphic sculptures of "Los verracos" found in the Cerro de Torre Castilla. And in the Plaza de la Constitución, its roll of Justice, in the Gothic-Plateresque style.
