Although the town of Caudilla is uninhabited, the ruins of the church remain there and even more striking are those of the Rivadeneyra castle, which was built in the 15th century and which curiously, after centuries of wars and attacks of the climate, is still standing. the figure of Christ at the top of its tower that makes it a very curious and striking place for many, especially for photography lovers looking for their best shot at night under a starry sky.

The church of San Esteban Protomártir stands out, built during the 17th and 18th centuries; the hermitage of the Santísimo Cristo de la Sala; the Loranque farm, a farmhouse from the end of the 18th century; and the open-air sculpture museum, which exhibits works by contemporary authors at various pedestrian points.

Torrijos has an enormous architectural heritage, among which it is worth highlighting the train station, the parish church (with a very old organ and elements brought from Medina Azahara), the palace of Pedro I or even its more contemporary Center for the Elderly.

Cozy town whose old town has been declared a Historic Site, so you can get an idea of how beautiful some of its houses are, which coexist next to the imposing church of San Sebastián. Méntrida also has its own Designation of Origin wines, so if you make a slightly longer stop, don't leave without trying them.
