Presentation of Duruelo de la Sierra

The municipality of Duruelo de la Sierra (1,322 inhabitants in 2010; 4,484 ha; municipal website) is located in the northwest of the Province of Soria, on the border with the Province of Burgos and La Rioja, 60 km from Soria.

Duruelo means "small Duero", referring to river Duero that takes its source on the municipal territory; accordingly, Duruelo and Porto, located at the mouth of Douro, twinned in 1989. "de la Sierra" refers to the Sierra de Urbión range, which peaks on the municipal territory at Pico de Urbión (2,229 m, also the highest point of the Soria Province).
Mozarab colonists were the first historical settlers of Duruelo, as evidenced by a necropolis (9th-12th centuries) and three Muslim arches (10th century) in the parish church. Subsequently deserted, the area was resettled in the 13th century by the Soria Council on behalf of King Ferdinand III the Saint; the charter prescribing the limits of the village and the rivers, pastures and properties allocated to the settlers is kept in the Municipal Archives. The rights of the villagers were confirmed by several kings, from Sancho IV to Philip II.
The 1,747 pines located on the municipal territory are randomly allocated every year, an old privilege that was last confirmed on 16 September 1901. Timber wood is used to produce pieces of furniture by the COMAR company, cooperatively managed by the villagers.
