Torrelapaja
Village
Torrelapaja is a small municipality of the Community of Calatayud, in the province of Zaragoza, with 30 inhabitants (2025), at about a thousand metres of altitude and crossed from north to south by the Manubles river. Local tradition holds it to be the birthplace of Saint Millán (San Millán), based on the life written by Saint Braulio and on the fact that, in Visigothic times, Torrelapaja was a district of neighbouring Berdejo; it preserves the so-called Casa de San Millán and the church of Nuestra Señora de Malanca, which holds a chest with relics of the saint. Between 1850 and 1960 lignite and asphalt mines were worked intermittently in the Vallehermoso ravine, and between 1929 and 1985 it had a station on the Santander-Mediterráneo railway, now converted into a greenway.
