What the owner has to say:

The Fifth of Malu is a unique seventeenth-century building that showcases the Manchego Castilian architecture of another era. Located in the small town of Valeria, with a population of just over 80 people, it boasts impressive traces of its illustrious past.

In Roman times, it was known as "The Great Valeria" and was home to famous ruins. It was also a major episcopal square during the Visigoth era until the twelfth century when the bishopric was moved to Cuenca.

Today, visitors can explore the Romanesque church and its museum, the ruins of the Roman Forum, and the spectacular gorges that surround the town, making it a popular destination for climbers.
