Legends of Teruel — The Land That Exists

Explore the legends of Teruel, from the tragic Lovers of Teruel to dragon tales and Mudéjar mysteries. The most legendary province in Spain.

<p Teruel — "the land that exists" — may be Spain's least populated province, but it is overflowing with legend. The tragic tale of the Lovers of Teruel rivals Romeo and Juliet: Diego and Isabel, separated by fate and reunited only in death, lie together in an exquisite Mudéjar mausoleum.</p

<p But the Lovers are only the beginning. Teruel's Mudéjar towers feature dragons and magical beasts in their tilework. The mountains of Albarracín hide tales of Moorish gold and enchanted caves. In Maestrazgo, every ruined castle tells a story of Templars, witches, or impossible quests.</p
