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.

It is called that precisely because it took that long to build it (although in reality it was more days) but we can still enjoy its layout in some parts.

For a small town, Villar del Olmo has many interesting historical and scenic things to see. The town hall has an application that will help you find them.

Take advantage of this bridge over the Tajuña Greenway to rest in the shade, something rare on this route! These bridges were used to cross the old train track that is now converted into the green cycling route.
