Orcajo
Village
Orcajo is a municipality in the comarca of Campo de Daroca, in the province of Zaragoza, with 65 inhabitants, situated at 770 metres above sea level. In 1248, by privilege of James I, it separated from Daroca to join the Sesma del Campo de Gallocanta, within the Comunidad de Aldeas de Daroca, dissolved in 1838. It preserves the church of San Bernabé, from the 17th-18th centuries, and the hermitage of Our Lady of the Rosary, in Gothic-Mudéjar style from the 16th century and today almost in ruins. Its pinsapar, a grove of Spanish fir uncommon in Aragón resulting from an early 20th-century reforestation, was declared an Arboleda Singular (a designation for a grove of exceptional natural value in Aragón) in 2018. Its patronal festivals, in honour of San Nicolás, are held on the second Sunday of May with a pilgrimage to its hermitage.
