Oropesa

The municipality of Oropesa sits at 425 meters above sea level, featuring administrative buildings and residential areas across its 337 square kilometers territory.

The ancient pre-Roman settlement of Otobesa evolved into present-day Oropesa, which gained significance when its castle became the residence of Toledo noble family in 1402.

The Jornadas Medievales festival in April brings the medieval heritage to life through traditional performances, crafts demonstrations, and historical reenactments at the castle.

Visitors can reach Oropesa using the postal code 45560, with Castilian Spanish serving as the primary language for communication in all administrative affairs.

The castle of Oropesa transformed into the Parador Nacional in 1930, offering accommodations while maintaining its original medieval architectural elements.
