Located in the MAESTRAZGO, eastern area of TERUEL, is a place where its mediaeval walls keep well. So, arriving to this village is to get into the History when Knights and beautiful Damsels walked on its lanes. The best starting point for travelling across the time is the PORTAL DE LAS MONJAS, next to convent of AGUSTINAS, here visitors will start a itinerary through centuryes looking at the larges Houses of walled MIRAMBEL. Travellers will see there are references in this place since twelve century. Here king JAIME I of ARAGON rested before starting the conquest of MORELLA, first conquested town of KINGDOM OF VALENCIA.
Walking on MIRAMBEL is to read a book of history or art. Its walls, its cobbles streets make a landscape that travellers won,t forget easily.
A walled village where its residents are prouds about the Gold Medal that "EUROPA NOSTRA FUNDATION" gave to the town because restoration and beauty works.
