Cigüenza sits in a valley between two hills with a population under 100 — which makes the 18th-century Baroque Iglesia de San Martín de Tours all the more surprising. The church was modeled after one in Lima, Peru, funded by a native of Cigüenza who made his fortune in the Americas — one of the Indianos whose returning wealth transformed villages across this coast.

A handful of large estates surrounding the church hint at similar stories.

Fiesta:

San Pantaleón is celebrated on the 27th of July and San Martín on the 11th of November.

The Camino:

After passing the Iglesia de San Martín the camino rejoins the CA-353 into Cóbreces.
