Alcázar del Rey
Village
Alcázar del Rey is a municipality in the province of Cuenca, in Castilla-La Mancha, with 171 inhabitants (INE 2025), situated beside the Roman road that linked Segóbriga with Guadalajara. Its documented history begins in the 9th century, with an Arab alcázar on the hill where the parish church now stands, part of the defensive system of the Cora de Santaveria, closely linked to Huete. In the mid-12th century it passed into Christian hands and, incorporated into the Kingdom of Castile, served as an outpost until the conquest of Uclés in 1174 and of Cuenca in 1177. Its church of Santo Domingo de Silos, from the 15th and 16th centuries, is a three-nave temple built in ashlar masonry; its tower, topped with battlements, comes from an earlier defensive structure from which the town takes its name, alcázar.
