Presentation of Casarrubuelos

The municipality of Casarrubuelos (3,460 inhabitants in 2014; 5,500 ha; municipal website) is located in the south of the Community of Madrid, on the border with Castilla-La Mancha (Province of Toledo), 30 km of Madrid.

Casarrubuelos was first document in a charter signed on 6 April 1154 by King Alfonso VII, kept in Illescas. The charter lists Casarrubuelos, Numancia, Torrejón de Illescas, Balaguera and Bohadilla to be transferred to Illescas. The villages were subsequently transferred from the church of Segovia to the church of Toledo. In 1222, Ferdinand III the Saint incorporated Casarrubuelos to the Land of Madrid, as a part of the Royal domain (realengo); this status would be maintained until the abolishment of the feudal system in the 19th century.
Casarrubuelos was totally destroyed during the War of Independence. Following the sack of the Santa María de la Cruz monastery, the villagers resisted the French troops. From the hill that separates the monastery and the village, the French artillery bombed the village, burning it down to ashes.
