Nature

A 110-metre-long promenade in Sacedón offers views of the Entrepeñas Reservoir. A 23-metre-high monument offers impressive views of the Entrepeñas Reservoir. The Ermita de la Virgen del Socorro offers a viewpoint over the Tagus Valley. The bridge over the Tagus was built in 1461 and connects the municipal areas of Auñón and Sacedón.

The waterside location thus appears both as a viewpoint and as a setting for various activities. For your planning, water, landscape and paths can be considered separately in their different forms.

Culture and History

The Ermita de la Santa Cara de Dios is a small Renaissance church in the centre of Sacedón and covers 222 square metres. It formerly served as the Hospitalillo de Nuestra Señora de Gracia, a refuge for poor people who came to Sacedón. Sacedón is also associated with Camilo José Cela's literary travel itinerary, “Viaje a la Alcarria”.

On the third Sunday in September, a pilgrimage to the Virgen del Socorro takes place in Sacedón. The festivities in honour of the Santa Cara de Dios in Sacedón begin on 28 August. These festivities include processions, bull events, dancing, games, theatre and activities for children. On the Thursday before Carnival, the Jovelardero tradition takes place in Sacedón; groups from the town set out with a picnic into the natural areas near the town.

Fixed festival dates, historic sites and literary references create different cultural focal points. You can incorporate these temporal and thematic points of reference independently into your travel planning.
