Presentation of Terrinches

The municipality of Terrinches (714 inhabitants in 2014; 5,552 ha) is located in the extreme south-east of the Province of Ciudad Real, on the border with the Province of Albacete, 120 km of Ciudad Real and 110 km of Albacete.

Terrinches was located in the Roman times on the Via Herculea, which linked Cádiz to Rome. The archeological site of Ontavia has yielded remains of a villa with baths, the oldest found in the Province of Ciudad Real, and a necropolis. The Roman site is located close to the oppidum of Bonete, dated form the Age of Bronze. Recent excavations have revealed a series of tumuli and a natural altar probably used for the celebration of the winter solstice, and a tomb in a perfect state of preservation.
Terrinches was first documented in 1282 through its castle, ruled by a Mayor appointed by the Grand Commander of the Order of Saint James in Castile. The castle was used as a watch tower and a shelter for the inhabitants of the neighboring villagers in case of Muslim raid. In 1282, Aben Yucef, Sultan of Morocco, set fire to the tower but could not obtain its surrender.
