Presentation of Valdepiélagos

The municipality of Valdepiélagos (587 inhabitants in 2017, 1,759 ha; municipal website) is located 60 km north-east of Madrid, on the border with the Province of Guadalajara (Castilla-La Mancha).

Valdepiélagos was established, according to the local historian Jaime Pereda Martín, at some date between 1085, the year of the Christian reconquest of the Kingdom of Toledo, and 1335. A privilege signed by King John II on 22 July 1429 confirms an earlier privilege signed on 22 July 1420 by Alfonso XI. Valdepiélagos was mentioned in Philip II's Relaciones Topográficas (1690) as a dependency of Talamanca.
The original privilege transferred the jurisdiction over Valdepiélagos to Gonzalo Ruiz de la Vega "as a reward for his service". John II's privilege confirmed the jurisdiction to Leonor de la Vega, daughter of Garcilosa de la Vega and niece of Gonzalo. At the time, the ecclesiastic lord of Valdepiélagos was the Archbishop of Toledo. In 1574, Philip II sold Talamanca, Valdepiélagos included, to the Marquis of Auñón, who sold it ten years later to García de Alvarado. The domain remained owned by the same lineage until 1669, when acquired by the Duke of Béjar.
Valdepiélagos was granted the title of villa on 3 May 1801 by Charles IV, in spite of the opposition of the Duchess of Béjar.
