Chiloeches
Village
Chiloeches is a municipality in the La Alcarria comarca, in the province of Guadalajara, situated at 786 metres above sea level and about 9 kilometres from the provincial capital, with 4,117 inhabitants according to the 2025 INE census. The origin of its name is unclear: a Celtic origin has been suggested, via the Mozarabic Xiloeches, “place of very good waters”, as well as Basque roots or ones linked to the colour of the silica in the nearby hills. It preserves the parish church of Santa Eulalia de Mérida and the Albolleque manor house, both from the 16th century, the manor house of the marquises of Chiloeches, from the 18th century, and the hermitage of la Soledad. On Holy Saturday a Living Passion is performed, and on 25 April the pilgrimage of San Marcos is celebrated, in addition to the patronal festival on 14 September.
