Image of Villar de Rena, not of the place itself.

Villar de Rena, of Roman origin and possibly built on the site of ancient Lacipea, was repopulated by the Templars in the late 12th century. It attained the status of a town in 1735, though full autonomy did not come until the disappearance of the Condado de Medellín.
