History

[edit | edit source]

It is home to a medieval castle, the so-called Castle of Cid. In a barter, Alfonso Carrillo de Acuña transferred the castle of Jadraque to Pedro González de Mendoza in exchange for the town of Maqueda and the mayorship of Toledo on 27 January 1470.[2]

By the early 16th century, the land of Jadraque extended across around 713 km2 of the Henares basin (divided into the sexmos of Henares and Bornova).[3]
