What to see and do in Rielves

Rielves
Village
Rielves is a municipality in the Torrijos comarca, in the province of Toledo, with 900 inhabitants (INE 2025), against the 272 it recorded in the mid-19th century; its name may derive from the contraction of río and albo, that is, white river. It is situated on the route of the Camino de Santiago de Levante between Toledo and Ávila, with lodging for pilgrims in the parish house. Its most notable archaeological find is the foundations of Roman baths probably dated to the 3rd century; a coin of Wamba and an inscription referring to San Vicente Mártir have also been found. Between the 12th and 18th centuries it belonged to various lordships. It preserves the parish church of Santiago Apóstol.

Monument
The remains of the Roman baths of Rielves, probably dating from the 3rd century, are one of the municipality's most notable archaeological finds. Also found within the same district were a coin of the Visigothic king Wamba and an inscription relating to Saint Vincent Martyr.
Rielves on the Camino de Santiago de Levante
Curiosity
Rielves, in the province of Toledo, lies along the Caminos de Santiago de Levante (the eastern route of the Way of St James), on the stretch between Toledo and Ávila, where the route is fully waymarked. Although it has no pilgrims' hostel, those walking the route usually lodge at the parish house, next to the church of Santiago Apóstol. The municipality, with fewer than a thousand inhabitants, retains remains of 3rd-century Roman baths and was, between the 12th and 13th centuries, a possession of the Bernardine monastery of San Clemente of Toledo.
