A beautiful village in northern Guadalajara, near Alto Rey, with a Romanesque church, fountain, old oven, etc. It's a very welcoming place, with a terrace in the Plaza.

A village in the Sierra Norte of Guadalajara, at an altitude of approximately 1,084 meters. Its origins are medieval, possibly predating the Bronze Age. The name derives from the Arabic Hisn al-Ancina (“castle of the holm oak”). In 1844, the discovery of silver triggered a “silver rush,” transforming Hiendelaencina into a major 19th-century mining district, with up to 200 mines and a population that reached 5,000. A parish church dedicated to Saint Cecilia was built between 1848 and 1851, financed with funds from the mining town.

The Church of Our Lady of the Assumption, in Tamajón (Guadalajara), stands atop a small hill to the north of the town center, at an altitude of approximately 1,097 meters, within the Diocese of Sigüenza-Guadalajara. It was built in the 13th century in the Romanesque style, with significant renovations in the 16th century that introduced Renaissance influences. In the 12th century, the area belonged to the Common Lands of the Town and Territory of Atienza; in the 15th century, it passed to the Mendoza family.

The Church of Our Lady of the Assumption in Tamajón, Guadalajara, is a beautiful example of 13th-century Romanesque architecture, with Renaissance reforms in the 16th century. Located on a small hill to the north of the town, this church stands out for its impressive façade and its rich history. The temple has a rectangular floor plan with three sections and three naves, with a flat chancel and a porticoed gallery on the south façade. Inside, you can admire mural paintings from different periods and Baroque and Gothic altarpieces that decorate the main altar and the side chapels.

The Hermitage of Nuestra Señora de Los Enebrales, in addition to its important religious connotation, is a recreation area with a large number of possible walks through its Prehistoric Caves and Shelters, as well as its "Enchanted City" Rocks, in some of which practice roof climbing teaching and training. It has a very large parking lot and trees and shades for the summer. Tamajón, the nearby town, in addition to being very beautiful and with a Romanesque Church, has good hospitality.
