A small village with a church, an ermita, and a truck-stop restaurant with a reputation for decent hot chocolate — a combination that sounds unlikely but works. The albergue is the first house you reach coming into town, and the hospitaleros are welcoming.

Not much to detain you otherwise, but the hot chocolate has earned a following.

History:

The town takes its current name from Francisco Delgado López, a native son who served as Bishop of Jaén and Lugo and was one of the most respected Counter-Reformation theologians at the Council of Trent. Before that, the village was known as Villa de Pun.
