Presentation of Villahán

The municipality of Villahán (108 inhabitants in 2016; 3,266 ha; municipal website) is located 45 km south-east of Palencia, on the border with the Province of Burgos.
Villahán means Fanius' estate. After the reconquest of the area by Alfonso III, the place was resettled, as Villa Fan, and protected by a castle and fortifications. Villahán was listed in the 10th century as part of the alfoz (group of villages) of Palenzuela; the next century, the village, known as Vaillafan, counted a monastery.
Famous lords of Villahán were Luis Osorio and Admiral Enríquez (1675). For long, the Duchess of Alba and the Count of Benavente claimed jurisdiction over Villahán, which was eventually granted to the Count of Benavente.
