Atienza, one of the most spectacular and best-preserved medieval villages in Guadalajara, is a monumental stop on the Camino de la Lana. Its silhouette is unmistakable, with an imposing rocky castle that rises above a hill, dominating the landscape and offering exceptional panoramic views. Declared a Historic-Artistic Ensemble, strolling through Atienza is like traveling back to the Middle Ages. For pilgrims, the village is an outdoor museum, featuring an incredible collection of Romanesque churches such as San Juan del Mercado, the Holy Trinity, or San Bartolomé.
