Torres de Alcanadre

It is first mentioned in a text from April 1179, in which Alfonso II of Aragon confirms certain donations to Countess Oria of Pallars.

Alcanadre River in eastern Somontano
Nature
Final stretch of the Alcanadre river as it passes through the eastern Somontano of Huesca, an area of traditional irrigated farming. The river rises in the Sierra de Galardón, in the municipality of Fiscal, at an altitude of 1,700 metres, runs for almost 148 kilometres and drains a basin of 3,421 km² before flowing into the Cinca near Ballobar, at an altitude of 138 metres; its average flow is around 15.4 m³/s. In this eastern stretch, near towns such as Torres de Alcanadre, the maize irrigation fields are fed mostly with water from the Cinca and discharge the surplus into the Alcanadre itself.
