The municipality of Fuentelespino de Haro (248 inhabitants in 2018; 3,344 ha; unofficial website) is located 90 km south-west of Cuenca.
Fuentelespino de Haro was established after the Christian reconquest
near a source (fuente) surrounded by hawthorns (espinos). "de Haro"
was added at the end of the 12th century, since the village was part of
the territory granted by Alfonso VIII to Diego López de Haro.
Fuentelespino was granted the status of villa in 1673 by Charles II,
separating from Villaescusa.
Giliberte, a village that disappeared long ago, has been inhabited since the Prehistoric times. Remains of a Roman column are shown in the Cuenca Archeological Museum. The village had a chapel, a fountain, and a fortress surrounded by three walls. This was the birth place of Miguel Lucas de Iranzo (d. 1473), Constable of Castile under the reign of Henry IV (1454-1474).
