The mule traders

Historical milestone · Maranchón, Señorío de Molina, Guadalajara

Image of Maranchón, not of the place itself.

In the nineteenth century a good part of the residents lived on the trade in mules, wax and soap through the interior of the Peninsula, with a jargon of their own for closing deals. Since 2019 a July fair recreates those sales of mule stock.
