Iglesuela del Cid, La
A picturesque Maestrazgo village whose name bears witness to the exploits of El Cid Campeador, though there's little else to commemorate the legendary hero.
Living in Iglesuela del Cid, La
La Iglesuela del Cid is a picturesque stone village of around 360 high in the Maestrazgo of Teruel, its ochre-red dry-stone walls and coat-of-arms-studded houses gathered on a compact church square — its very name a memory of El Cid, who once swept through these hills. At nearly 1,300m it is genuine high country, with cold winters and warm, dry summers. It's mostly Spanish, with a small North African and Pakistani minority. This is about as remote as mainland Spain gets: the nearest hospital is nearly an hour and a half away, and the nearest city — Castellón, over the mountains — about the same.
