Dos Torres is a town steeped in history, its origins date back to the Late Middle Ages (14th and 15th centuries), but its territory was already populated in antiquity, in Paleolithic times and during Roman times, proof of this is the large number of archaeological vestiges that our historical evolution has bequeathed. The towns that gave rise to the current municipality were Torremilano and Torrefranca, whose peak took place in the 15th and 16th centuries, being during this period when its most relevant architecture would be built.
