The village of the Moriscos

Curiosity · Moriscos, La Armuña, Salamanca

Image of Moriscos, not of the place itself.

Founded in the fourteenth century within the quarter of Villoria, the place was called «Morisco», in the singular, because it was settled with people of that origin; the present plural and the station opened in 1877 are much later additions.
