Almodóvar del Pinar (47 kms. south of the City of Cuenca) was one of the most important villages in Spain in the 18th century. Known as the “village of the wagons”, it was dedicated to the transportation of merchandise. Those who come here will realize that the Roman legacy is present in its urban complex for its grid structure with three streets that run North and South and cut others perpendicularly. To the North is the Plaza of the Church, the nucleus of the town. At the foot of the Castillejo Hill, two turrets of the ancient fortress are preserved and a damaged water deposit.Upon arriving to the church of the Assumption, with a Latin cross floor plan of only one nave and rectangular presbytery with chapels on the sides, we will see in its exterior the octagonal dome.
