Castillo-Albaráñez
Village
Castillo-Albaráñez is a municipality in the district of La Alcarria Conquense, in the province of Cuenca, with 17 inhabitants (INE 2025). According to tradition, the town was reconquered by the troops of El Cid Campeador, whose cousin Álvar Fáñez de Minaya remained as lord of the place and built the fortress that gave the village its name; of that construction only the underground caves scattered across the promontory remain, known as the Cueva del Castillo. Its church of Nuestra Señora de la Asunción, from the last third of the 16th century, has a single nave with a three-bay ashlar bell-gable and a barrel vault. The ensemble is completed by the hermitage of Santa Lucía, with a 17th-century altarpiece dated 1672.
