THE WATER, THE KEY OF THE REGION
The region of Calatayud blanket the main number of bath of the
province of Zaragoza that is framed in the localities of Jaraba,
Alhama de Aragón and Paracuellos de Jiloca. Six are the thermal
stations that have done of this Aragonese part one of the main
points of interest of the national bath sector.
Kindness of the water
The bath have stopped being solely centers of health to also
become places of leisure and rest. But the curativas properties of
the water and its different treatments are recommendable to resist
cutaneous diseases or to fight renales problems, for rheumatics or
people with difficulties in the kidney, to face the fatigue,
rheumatic cystitis, inflammations or urinary and digestive
problems. Baths, thousand type and massages, water spurts,
inhalations, showers circular, aesthetic treatments. a good number
of forms to complete our organism. To all these curativas
possibilities the attractiveness of the surroundings is united
that surround to the bath that show other so many alternatives of
leisure outdoors.
The route of the bath
The route of the bath gives beginning in Alhama, a small
population located to 600 meters of altitude to which it is
acceded by the perfectly signalized highway N-II and that passes
by a tremendously rewarding place. From this locality we will take
the A-2502 that ends at the dam of the Tranquera to continue way
towards Jaraba by another highway of local or regional importance,
a 1501. In this municipality bathed by waters of the Mesa river,
also they appear, again, other thermal water bath.
Section the one of Paracuellos de Jiloca solely has left just a
little bit to which we will accede from Calatayud by the highway
that leads to Maluenda (N-234). To way of these two localities is
the bath of Paracuellos.
THE STONE MONASTERY
The attraction of the bath, one of the tourist formulas with
greater projection in Aragón, the enchantment of the Stone
Monastery, the history and the culture of Calatayud, the flavor of
the populations that conform this region. a magical route with
infinity of alternatives with which to please the diverse delights.
One of more important the tourist and monumental resources of Aragón,
a natural oasis that breaks aesthetic the barren one, a silence
spring where the water splashes of beauty all whatever covers.
Thus it is the Stone Monastery, founded by the gravies of the Císter
on century XII and turned the hotel and the present natural place
the XIX.
And they are these two slopes, monumental and the landscaping one,
those that fragment this magnificent tourist set.
To discover the dependencies of the Monastery
This itinerary is lead by the guides who are showing the traveller
the form of life and customs of the old monks. They cross
claustro, the room to capitulate, the abbey, cripta, the passage,
the room of vehicles, the refectory and the conventual kitchen,
among others. In this last place it was where the chocolate in
Europe was introduced for the first time. For that reason the
visit is sweetened more and more.
In the warehouses it emphasizes the Museum of Vino from the
Denomination of Origin Calatayud, a totally recommendable to know
and present the past space wines of this prestigious vinícola
region.

ramble by the most recommendable snapshots: From the impressive
viewpoint of the Tail of Horse Iris descends itself to the Grotto
and the Rock of the Devil is crossed, the relajante Lake of the
Mirror, the Chorreadores, the Lake of the Ducks, or the Grotto of
the Artist, among others. To make this route is to go deep in one
of the most beautiful places of Aragón.

Waters above we can appreciate in the left margin of the river the
building of the harinero mill of Careenings, and above the fluvial
course is cut by the prey of the Tranquera. The dam extends the
placidness of its waters by the encounter of the channels of the
Stone with Mesa and the Ortiz, that are united between escarpments
of reddish tones and lateral covers by forests of repoblados
pines, that offer places shaded for the break. In Careenings, on
the beautiful fertile valley, in slopes, a good holm-oak forest
grows.
THE CALATAYUD REGION
Territory located in the high course of the Tug, between the
province of Guadalajara and the regions of Cariñena and Daroca,
which it limits the west with the province of Soria, and whose
emblematic natural place that distinguishes to the zone is the
natural place of the Stone Monastery, an authentic labyrinth drawn
up by cascades of the Piedra river, Siguiente
to whose channel a
cisterciense monastery rose from century XIII part of whose
dependencies they today lodge the Museum of Vino from the
Denomination of Origin Field of Calatayud.
Its capital is the villa of Calatayud, with an artistic patrimony
guaranteed by the deserved title of Mudéjar City. The locality
has in addition ruins to the old Bílbilis Roman Augusta. In
others of their municipalities monument samples exist important
like the church to mudéjar of Ateca, the church of San Miguel de
Villafeliche, the wind mill of Malanquilla and the rest of the
medieval castle of Moors.
Web of Tourism of Community of Calatayud
From Madrid or Zaragoza the accessibility to Careenings and the
Region of Calatayud is fast by the Railcar of Aragón (N-II), that
crosses the region.
Innumerable they are the enchantments of the region, whose
neuralgic point is the city of Calatayud, cradles of Martial,
fourth city of Aragón and monumental city, being able to mention
its churches like Real San Juan, with decoration painted by Goya,
the Church of San Andrés with gorgeous tower to mudéjar, the
Colegiata of Santa Maria the Greater or the one of the Virgin of
the Rock, and her civil buildings like its doors (the Door of
Terrer or the Door of Zaragoza). To the West of the Region they
locate Torrelapaja, Berdejo, Malanquilla, Clarés de Ribota and
Bijuesca, with castle, something that will be repeated in almost
all the localities, like Torrijo of the Gorge, Nigüella or Arándiga
or in the fortifications of Villalengua, Villafeliche, Torralba de
Ribota, Moors, Godojos or in the spectacular castle of Cetina,
locality where Francisco de Quevedo married. Splendid it is the
church of Villarroya of the Mountain range, like the one of
Cervera of the Gorge, the one of Ibdes, the one of Careenings, the
one of Maluenda or the one of Aniñón or the one of Campillo de
Aragón. Of great interest mudéjares is the urban set of Ateca
with its towers, like the one of Terrer, Moto'n or Mara. And it is
that mudéjar it is fundamental in this region (Velilla de Jiloca,
Morata de Jiloca, Embid, Sabiñán, Tobed - impressive monumental
set).
Well-known region also by its situated bath in Alhama de Aragón
where we can also find the castle of Alhama, the parochial church
of the Natividad of the Virgin Santísima, Jaraba and Paracuellos
de Jiloca, as well as by the Stone Monastery, impressive artistic
set in a privileged person nails natural, in the municipal term of
Nuévalos and by to be cradle of Balthasar Gracián, born in
Belmonte de Gracián baptized in the gorgeous church to mudéjar
local.
PATRIMONY
To cross Calatayud
Exerting the unquestionable capitalidad of the region is
Calatayud, a monumental city that fuses between its streets a
compendium of cultures, styles and traditions.
Its strategic location has favored during the passage of time the
one that numerous towns were based in the present region. Its
capital is declared Joint Historical and Monumental from 1967.
Qal´at Ayyub to mudéjar
Of all the region, Calatayud is the population that greater
vestiges mudéjares conserves although the passage of time, by
destructions or negligence, has eliminated some of them. Of all
the existing constructions the colegiata of Santa Maria is most
representative. Claustro, the apse and the imposing tower, that is
descried from great part of the locality, are greater the
attractiveness than it offers the Arab legacy. But it is not the
only church since others like San Andrés, San Pedro of the Francs
(Photo 1), Virgin of the Rock or the present colegiata of Santo
Sepulcro are other samples of the art to mudéjar that Calatayud
hides.
Of all of them, in addition to the outer structure and materials,
they emphasize the interiors and the inner decoration. One of the
options to successfully obtain information on the Muslim culture
of the city is the office of tourism located in the Seat of the
Fort,
The Municipium Augusta Roman Bilbilis
To about five kilometers of Calatayud is the old Roman city of the
Tug, Bilbilis.
The inheritance to mudéjar through the river
Qal ´at Ayyub was during four centuries city occupied and
governed by Muslims. And in all this time (714-1120) Arab and
bereberes they put record of its culture with an impressive
artistic reference to mudéjar. In order to cross the route to mudéjar
of Calatayud, we can take like routes the courses from the
different rivers that cross the region. Beginning by the Tug, the
locality of Ateca has one of the more singular towers mudéjares
of Aragón since their four faces were decorated equal. To little
distance, on a tower of the castle the Tower of the Clock, a
sample was built to mudéjar of century XVI. Following the channel
in the direction of Terrer, the tower of the church very similar
to the one of Belmonte and Aniñón calls the attention. Other
outstanding towers of this zone are those of Huérmeda,
Paracuellos of the Creek and Saviñán.
If we now took the channel from the Jiloca river its waters they
will be to us discovering numerous localities whose wealth is than
remarkable more. Maluenda, one of the epicenters mudéjares, has
three churches with interesting apses, yeserías, porches and,
evidently, towers. Although something separated of the course of
the river, the locality of Olvés hides a peculiar hermitage that,
along with Velilla, Morata, Fuentes and Villafeliche, compose the
epicenter to mudéjar that it passes Siguiente
to the Jiloca.
The Parsleys, a river that passes parallel to its Jiloca neighbor,
vertebra what would be another route to mudéjar. Villalba and the
rest of their mosque, the church of Belmonte, the tower of Mara
and some vestiges that are in Orera and Ruesca are their main
ambassadors.
An affluent of the Tug, the Ribota river, and the adjacent
localities also conserve numerous rest mudéjares. They emphasize
the church of Torralba, the one of Aniñón, the one of Cervera of
the Gorge and to a lesser extent the one of Villarroya of the
Mountain range, since it conserves few rest
PATRIMONY OF CAREENINGS
In its term is the castle of Somet, of Muslim foundation (century
VIII); the missing castle of Careenings (century XII), on which
the Parochial Church was built, and the scaffolding of the
Chorrillo, small defensive tower also of century XII.
It deserves to emphasize to emphasize the Parochial Church of Our
Lady of Asuncio'n, in the old call of Santa Maria, who began to
construct in 1258 on the location of the castle. The hermitage of
Santa Ana, of aims of century XVI, the hermitage of the Tomb of
principles of century XVII and the hermitage of San Sebastián, of
century XIII, and at the half-ruined present time. It emphasizes
the house-palace of the Señoría, that belonged to the
cistercienses Stone monks, with two constructive times: century
XIII and the great remodeling of century XVII.
Within their municipal term are two disappeared population
centers, Cocos and Somet, that were covered by waters of the
Marsh. In the term of Somet was the castle of its same name,
constructed by the Muslims in century VIII, on a hill of great
geologic interest.
It has Careenings three hermitages: Santa Ana (final of century
XVI) the Tomb (beginnings of the XVII) and the ruinous one of San
Sebastián (century XIII). A house-palace, that belonged to the
monastery of Stone and his near two hundreds of warehouses
excavated on the rock.
In the hermitage of Santa Ana de Carenas a stature of Sta. is
conserved Ana Trinitaria, who comes from the factories of Malinas,
the Netherlands.
One is a sculpture of the century XVI, whose presence in
Careenings can be justified by means of documents from 1655,
brought of Algeria by a monk Mercedario, call N. Romea.
The technical characteristics, correspond to the entalladores and
escultores of altarpieces of Malinas, Amberes, Brussels, Lieja,
Lovaina, and Utrecht, etc. We do not forget the circumstances
derived from the narrow maintained mercantile relations between
Spain and Flandes, which allowed a cultural interchange of great
openwork.
The technique is of walnut wood stature and has 29 cm. of height,
represents Sta. Ana holding in the same arm the Virgin and the
Boy; with the back flattened in "chuleta". The policromía,
very careful, is characterized because usually it goes punched
with letter M in one of you fold power stations of the mantle.
The artistic characteristics are the following ones: The cleared
face, emphasizing the made convex forehead, that empequeñece
still more the nose and the mouth. The small and intimidated eyes,
the eyebrows very bent confer to these images a special
expression. The long hair works in wicks to taps of semicircular
gouge.
From half-full of century XV and until entered good the XVI, one
becomes present in the important production, "type maliné",
statuettes that reach great diffusion by their technical and
finished perfection.
These "statures" of Malinas today constitute a great
interest for the great Museums and collectors, by their artistic
historical value and the difficult thing to find a unit, by the
few existing ones.
It constitutes a good occasion to be able to contemplate and to
enjoy these "wrists" of Malinas in the hermitage of Sta
Ana de Carenas.
