Orgaz

Highlight • Settlement

Orgaz stretches out in its hollow and shakes off the dust of history that sprinkles medieval songs, county records and historical files to narrate its journey, while we contemplate its living legacy in the walk through its streets and monuments.

From an illustrious entrance, the doors of its ancient walls already immerse us in the town and in the Middle Ages, to lose ourselves in both as soon as we flank the Arch of San José or the Arch of Belén. The old town surrounds us with interest and makes us turn our gaze that stops at the details. The house of Calderón de la Barca or that of the Vínculo de las Cadenas. The Church of Santo Tomás Apóstol by Alberto de Churriguera and with an illustration by El Greco, El Expolio, a painter who is impregnating the town and it with his work.

The Castle of the Counts of Orgaz, is from the 14th century, possibly built on a previous one, it is a beautiful example of a residential fortress and of magnificent conservation. It has a rectangular floor plan and is finished with beautiful battlements with wonderful projecting turrets at the corners. The Keep has a semicircular apse corresponding to a chapel that breaks the rectilinear structure of the complex.

Vereda del Fraile

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Very cool and entertaining path that runs through a quiet area with lots of trees, ideal for days when the heat is pressing. It allows you to connect with the paths and tracks that lead to the top of Pico Amor.

Arisgotas is a district of Orgaz where the ruins of the archaeological site of Los Hitos are located, an ancient Visigothic monastery of which a few ruins remain. However, on this route, since it is by road, we do not pass through here; but in the center of the town, where we can see the Parish of Our Lady of the Assumption, built at the end of the 15th century and beginning of the 16th century, and inside which we can see Mudejar coffered ceilings and polychrome wood carvings. Its portico and small circular tower also draw attention.

It is located very close to the parish church, and has a central nave, although it may have had another smaller nave in the shape of a Latin cross, of which currently only one of the arms remains. The restoration carried out in 2002 revealed its original floor of granite ashlars.
