Description

The charming old town of Cuenca is located in the province of Castilla-La Mancha (region which is known as the birthplace of our famous book of Don Quixote), between Valencia and Madrid. The history of Cuenca goes back as early as the beginning of our era when Celtic warriors settled here. Later, the Romans lived here and finally came the Arabs, from which the city got its name-Kuvenka, (name which has survived to present times). By connecting all these cultures Cuenca gained its own unique look and style.

In the old town is located – the central square Plaza de Mayor and placed here a Gothic cathedral Catedral de Santa María y San Julián, the Gothic church of San Miguel and watchtower Torre de Mangana.
