Most villages in Spain have a legend, and Albarracín is no exception. It is aforesaid that the young princess Doña Blanca was banished from her home by her jealous sister-in-law, the Queen of Aragón. The Azagra family, the wealthy lords of Albarracín, took her in on her way to Castile and gave her comfort during her exile. One day, while taking a walk, she disappeared and was never seen alive again. Most believe she was taken prisoner and died many years later in La Torre de Doña Blanca (The Tower of Lady Blanca). It is said that her spirit still remains inside, and she only leaves on a full moon in August to take a dip in the Guadalaviar River below.
