The independence from Chillón

Curiosity · Guadalmez, Valle de Alcudia, Ciudad Real

Guadalmez, in the Valle de Alcudia (Ciudad Real), did not achieve municipal independence on the first attempt: from 1869 onward, several separatist initiatives by the hamlet against the town of Chillón followed one another, all of them thwarted, until in 1927 it finally managed to break away for good, taking 7,190 hectares from Chillón and becoming a municipality in its own right.
