Presentation of Aranda de Duero

The municipality of Aranda de Duero (33,459 inhabitants in 2009, therefore the 3rd most populous municipality in the province; 12,728 ha; municipal website) is located in the south of the Province of Burgos, 90 km of Burgos.

Aranda de Duero was mentioned for the first time in 1088 in the acts of the Council of Husillos. Aranda means "a wide plain". In the 13th century, the town was made a Royal domain (realengo) by King Sancho IV, a privilege confirmed by Peter I. The inhabitants never gave up this privilege, for instance during the youth of Ferdinand IV when Diego López de Haro attempted to take control of Aranda. A Council gathered by Archbishop Alfonso Carrillo was held in 1473 in the St. John church of the town.
Aranda de Duero has an extended network of underground wine cellars, whose building started in the late 12th - early 13th century. Located 10-14 m under the ground level, the galleries spread over more than 7 km; temperature (9-11 °C) and humidity are particularly suitable for the elaboration of wine. The galleries link 135 (once 300) cellars.
