Presentation of Cardiel de los Montes

The municipality of Cardiel de los Montes (388 inhabitants in 2014; 2,400 ha) is located 65 km north-west of Toledo.

Cardiel de los Montes is probably named for thistles (cardos, from Latin ) and the diminutive suffix -el. Accordingly, the place would have been a land rich in small thistles. Another etymology is based on Latin carduelis, "a goldfinch". The village is first documented in Philip II's Relaciones.
