Castle in Zorita de los Canes
“He was used to measuring distances by hours of walking on the mao and the journey to Zorita, on that basis, would have taken him an entire day, walking along the Arlés down to the mouth in the Tagus not passing through a single village”. Journey to the Alcarria, Camilo Jose Cela. Zorita de los Canes stands out for its castle, a remnant left by the military order of Calatrava, of which some emblems remain such as the seal of the order engraved at the bottom of the entrance gate to the village.
