Alcaraz

Highlight • Settlement

The walk through the village offers innumerable details, ornaments, arches, portals, and balconies. The Customs House door, the Galiano house, the sanctuary of Nuestra Señora de las Cortes, the monastery of Santa María Magdalena, the convent of San Francisco, or the Torre do Grogojí are some of the treasures that this beautiful Albacete village hides among its streets and landscapes.

Shortly after Alcaraz, the Via Verde begins towards Albacete, which is about 75 km long. A real highlight!

Sanctuary of Our Lady of Cortes

Highlight • Religious Site

Without a doubt, the sanctuary of Cortes is the most visited place in the province of Albacete. In 1976, an article by W. A. Christian on Spanish sanctuaries was published. In it, he classified the importance of these centers of popular devotion based on the geographical area occupied by the devotees who attended each of them. He established four national sanctuaries and a dozen regional ones. Among the latter was that of the Virgen de Cortes de Alcaraz, this being the only one in the Castilian-La Mancha region considered in this category. From this, without a doubt, it followed that Cortes was a very significant sanctuary and it maintains this character today.
